The dismissal order for Leila Salimi, a teachers’ union activist from Sanandaj, issued by the Ministry of Education’s Administrative Violations Appeals Board, has been reduced to a two-month suspension from service.
According to Kolbarnews, citing the Coordinating Council of Iranian Teachers’ Union Associations, Leila Salimi has been temporarily suspended from her position. The report states that the Appeals Board recently sentenced her to a two-month suspension from her duties.
Earlier this year, the Kurdistan Province’s Administrative Violations Board had sentenced Salimi to dismissal from the Ministry of Education due to her union activities within the teaching sector. After filing an appeal against the initial ruling, her case was reviewed, and following evidence assessment and in-person hearings, the dismissal order was reduced to a suspension for the stated period.
Leila Salimi, a teacher and union activist residing in Sanandaj, holds a PhD in Management.
