The organization said in a press release that it is duty of the present "government" to set free the prisoners of conscience such as the chairman of the Confederation.

It charged that though a new "government" emerged after the candlelight demonstrations, but a large number of prisoners of conscience are still behind bars.

The press release said that the workers are a leading part of the candlelight demonstrations as they fought for the rights of all the workers and their right to existence, not for private interests.
