Report on the 26th Session of the Court Investigating the Charges of MEK

The 26th court session to investigate the charges against 104 members of the Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK) the nature of this organization as a legal entity, was held publicly on Tuesday (January 8) in Branch 11 of the Criminal Court of a Tehran province, presided over by Judge Amir Reza Dehghani and court advisors Morteza Turk and Amin Nasseri, in the presence of a minister representing the prosecutor, the families of the victims and their lawyers, as well as the lawyers of the defendants.

Following the previous session, the plaintiffs’ lawyer, Kazemi, discussed the operations carried out by the MEK, which included the torture and killing of a number of civilians. The lawyer asked the eyewitness to take the stand and testify about the victims and the accused ones of this crime.

Akbar Kabiri, one of the witnesses in this trial, after taking the oath said, “Taleb Taheri was a teenager, about 17 years old. He was short, had no features, and was very lively and active.”

According to his testimonies Khosro Zandi was the MEK agent who was charged with disappearing the bodies of the three killed victims of the Engineering Operation including Taleb. “There is a video of the discovery of the bodies of these three victims at the location announced by Khosrow Zandi,” he said.

Addressing the first defendant, the legal entity of the MEK and 104 other defendants in the case, the judge said: “International treaties on combating terrorism allow countries where terrorist acts have taken place to have their domestic courts have the authority to hear these charges and crimes.” This public trial is being held in the presence of members of the media and news agencies, and it was revealed that the organization and some of the defendants were fully aware of the trial and are commenting on it.”

He added, “I once again announce to Massoud Rajavi and the other defendants in the 26th session of the court, today we are hearing the charge of torturing a 17-year-old teenager. Your lawyers are present in court.”

The plaintiffs’ Lawyer said: “The legislator has criminalized four instances of forming, planning, organizing, and managing a criminal group. According to legal rules, a person who leads another person to commit a crime is considered an accessory to a crime. In other words, leadership of a criminal group is a specific crime; if the crime is committed by members of the group and the person who formed the group is prosecuted as leadership.”

A former member of the MEK, Jalilian also testified, he regarded Massoud Rajavi as the main person to order the atrocities the group agents committed. He told the court, “If someone in the MEK wants to drink water, it is impossible for Rajavi not to know. He issued his orders throughout the organization. They have a trained organizational cadre. It was not like they tortured someone and Massoud Rajavi was unaware.”

The next session of the court hearings to investigate the crimes of the MEK and its leaders will be held on January 21.

Conference of the Albanian Nejat Society in Tirana

Message from the President of the Nejat Society Albania

Greetings to all my dear compatriots and also to all the Iranian families of the members trapped in the Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK) camp in Manz.

I congratulate you on the arrival of the year 2025, I wish it to be a year full of goodness and blessings for all of you.

We also hope that the year 2025 will be the year of the connection of Iranian families with their loved ones trapped in the People’s Mujahedin Organization camp in Manez and the realization of the fundamental rights of the current members of this organization and that good and new events will take place in this year.

I take the opportunity to review some of the important activities carried out by Nejat Society Albania in 2024

The documentary film “Mother, Love, Separation”, which is the result of our meeting with several mothers grieving due to distance and separation from their children, was produced and screened this year under the direction of Aldo Sollulari, Director of the Albanian Rescue Media. Society. This very strong and influential documentary expresses our problem well and we pledged by producing this documentary that we will continue our struggle until we achieve our goal.

During this year, many television interviews were conducted on prominent Albanian channels to clarify the nature of the MEK and the demands of families for human rights.

In this regard, many articles, discussions and online conferences were also produced, in addition to the fact that members of Nejat Society Albania were very active on social networks in cyberspace.

Online programs of meetings and talks with Nejat Society inside Iran and talks with families to resolve their problems with MEK were organized, which were very well received by the suffering families.

A public rally was held in Tirana to demand human rights for the residents of the Manez camp, as well as conferences in various cities, such as Shkodër, Elbasan, along with a photo and cartoon exhibition and a documentary screening, as well as meetings and discussions with local personalities were held.

Three books have been written by three Albanian authors and one book has been translated from Persian into Albanian, which is expected to be published, presented and distributed in the new year.

I participated in a revealing conference in Italy and met and talked with Italian personalities, which caused a hysterical reaction from the MEK and false accusations, which have been proven to be the opposite in practice. Our response to the lies spread by the leaders of the MEK is that we continue our work to protect the rights of members who are under pressure but are afraid to voice their demands.

The members and officials of the Albanian Salvation Association pledge to mothers who want to see their children and families who want to connect with their loved ones, to continue their journey in the new year more than before and with double energy.

Although we know that the MEK wants to close our association and is hostile to us in every way, we also know that all this is happening because we are telling the truths that many people do not know. We raise the voice of families who have been deprived of the right to communicate with their loved ones.

We want the people imprisoned in the MEK camp in Manez to have the right to self-determination and return to normal life and real freedom.

Here I should thank all members Nejat Society Albania for their tireless efforts despite all the difficulties and shortcomings. Although these people are often threatened or accused by the leaders of the People’s Mujahedin organization, they still show the truth of their lives and the reality within this organization.

Also, on behalf of all the members of Nejat Society Albania, I would like to appreciate the efforts of Mr. Ebrahim Khodabandeh, the CEO of Nejat Society in Iran, for leading our efforts to free the members trapped in the MEK. I also want to thank all mothers and families who have supported us in these years and I hope that in the end we will all succeed.

Once again, I congratulate everyone on the new year and wish you happiness and prosperity.

Thank you and respect

25th session of the trial court of the MEK held in Tehran

MEK rial The 25th court session was held to hear the charges against 104 members of the Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK), as well as the nature of this organization as a legal entity.

The 25th court session examining the charges against 104 high-ranking members of the MEK as well as the organization’s nature as a legal entity, was held in public on Tuesday at Branch 11 of the Criminal Court of Tehran province, presided by Judge Amir Reza Dehghani.

At the beginning of the session, Judge Dehghani asked the plaintiffs’ lawyer to take the stand and make his statements.

Lawyer Kazemi said: In the last session, we talked about a topic called “engineering operations”. After the measures taken in February 1981, a large number of team houses and high-ranking individuals of the organization were identified and arrested, the organization felt danger and accordingly sought a solution to stop this process. The members of the organization executed engineering operations. Engineering operations mean carrying out intelligence work so that they can understand the reason for the leaking in the organization, so they changed their approach from assassinating individuals to collecting information.

Kazemi added: “At first, they started collecting information from the people at the community level, but they found out that they were not getting any results, so they came to the conclusion that they would kidnap people who they thought were affiliated with the Islamic Republic and obtain information from them by torturing them to find out where they were being penetrated. This was considered the engineering operation.”

Kazemi continued: “Explanations were given in the previous session regarding the execution of the engineering operation and the crimes committed against Abbas Effat-Ravesh, one of the victims of the group. In this session, we will discuss the various aspects of the MEK’s acts of kidnapping, torturing, and assassinating two members of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards, Taleb Taheri and Mohsen Mirjalili, in the operation known as the Engineering Operation.”

He added: “According to the confessions of the arrested members of the NEK, the group’s central leadership, following the successive blows to the organization’s body that had led to the arrest of a large number of its members, and also in order to identify the perpetrators of the blows, took action to identify, kidnap, and torture individuals with religious appearances to gather information.”

The plaintiffs’ lawyer said: “The core members of the organization made sure that their team houses were ready for the purpose of torturing individuals, as well as providing them with the tools and equipment to torture. When they wanted to torture individuals, they would identify specific houses and equip them, for example, they would prepare a house so that no sound could escape from it.”

He quoted from an arrested member of the group, the defendant Mehran Asdaghi, one of the military commanders of the MEK at that time. In his statements justifying these actions, Asdaghi said that the regarding the announcement of the torture agenda by the group’s leaders and central cadres, the torture line was not separate from the rest of the organization’s agenda. It was a continuation of the same lines of conflicts after the 22th of July (the start of the group’s armed struggle against Islamic Republic), assassinations and burning of houses and killing of government officials, and ultimately this same process of torture.

Based on Asdaghi’s confessions, in their justifications, they said that we are torturing now, but when we come to power, we will no longer torture. In this regard, the members of the organization, taking up the torture line, attempted to kidnap Abbas Effat Ravesh, a shoemaker, Khosrow Riahi, a teacher, and three members of the Revolutionary Guards named Taleb Taheri, Mohsen Mirjalili, and Shahrokh Tahmasbi, arguing that these individuals had a religious appearance and so were probably trying to identify the organization’s team houses.

Kazemi added: On August 6, 1982, the two great martyrs Taleb Taheri and Mohsen Mirjalili, members of the Islamic Revolutionary Committee, were standing on Karun Street near a team house belonging to the group’s members. The team house security force became suspicious of them and, after coordinating with the headquarters, searched them on the street, then forced them into a car and transferred them to the team house where they were tortured.

The lawyer quoted the statements of the arrested defendants: Taleb Taheri and Mohsen Mirjalili were subjected to the most heinous tortures from the moment they arrived at this place, such as burning their bodies with an iron and boiling water, severe blows to the face and mouth, and teeth extraction by members of the organization. Then, when their torture failed, they were shot and killed by injecting cyanide into their bodies. Then, their bodies were wrapped in blankets and taken to Nizamabad and handed over to the defendant Khosrow Zandi, another member of the organization in the engineering department. They also transferred the bodies to a place in Bagh-e-Fayz that they had prepared in advance.

“The images of this incident are clear and will be made available to the court,” the lawyer said. According to these images, Taleb Taheri and Mohsen Mirjalili were two members of the Guards who were suspected by the MEK and were kidnapped, tortured and finally killed. Taleb Taheri was only 17 years old at the time.

Sedaqat, a legal expert, then took the stand and provided explanations on the subject of the engineering operation, its origins, factors, and effects. He said: “As an expert, I must have an analytical view of this incident. It must be investigated why such actions were taken and why these tortures were carried out.” According to the confessions of one of the leaders of the group and the head of their military branch in Tehran, which were read by the defense attorney, these tortures were very brutal and similar tortures cannot be found even in the Middle Ages. This amount of brutality and misconduct is unprecedented in history.

Based on the confessions of the arrested members of the MEK, Kazemi read details of the ruthless tortures MEK agents committed against the five victims of Engineering Operation to the audience.

Amir Aslan Hassanzadeh & Amir Yaghmai mothers

Human Rights Abuse in the MEK

Motherhood in the MEK vs Motherhood in free world

On the occasion of Mother’s Day in Iran, the mothers of elderly members of the Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK) are longing to see their loved ones in person or even make a phone call, bearing the pain of years of separation. And the middle-aged mothers of the MEK within the walls of the group’s camp are bearing the pain of denying their maternal instinct and being away from their children. The cause of these two great sufferings is the cult of personality of Massoud Rajavi.
The first group, namely mothers who have been deprived of contact with their children for an average of three decades, have been full of maternal love all these years trying to get the slightest news from their imprisoned children. They have taken their complaint to international forums and have tried to make their voices heard by justice seekers through various means.

Mothers like Soraya Abdollahi, who are symbols of maternal love and resistance to the Rajavis’ blatant oppression, stand against the various vindictive labels the MEK puts on them and insist on their fundamental right to contact their beloved children.

On the other hand, their children are under pressure from the cult-like dictatorship of the group leaders to forget their family, to consider their family as enemies, and even to consider their mothers –who cry out with tearful eyes to see them– as mercenaries. These Children were even brought in front of the group’s TV cameras to curse their mothers.
The second group are mothers who are now in the group and whose children live in different parts of the world. In this group, there are mothers whose children are also in the MEK’s headquarters but there is no mother-child relationship between them. These children were child soldiers who were smuggled from Iraq to Europe and North America, and then smuggled back to the MEK’s headquarters in Iraq as teenagers. These mothers and their MEK children have no contact with each other except for one or two official visits a year.

After forced divorces, Mujahed mothers were forced to hand over their children to the smugglers of the MEK. Many of them are unaware of the fate of their children after long years of separation. Some have also been faced with their children’s revelations about the Cult of Rajavi. On the order of the group leaders, they have denied any maternal affection for their children. Amir Yaghmai and Mohammad Reza Torabi are among the child soldiers whose mothers have denied them in the group’s media and labeled them as mercenaries of the Iranian government!

The MEK, headed by Massoud Rajavi, is the defining line between being a mother and not being a mother. Today, if any MEK member leaves Camp Ashraf 3, they are welcomed with enthusiasm by their mothers, but each of the child soldiers who have left the group and whose mothers are still trapped in it, have been so much disliked by the side of their mothers that they could accept that there is no maternal love from them.

Human Rights Abuse in the MEK

Raise Awareness about rights of MEK members on International Migrants’ Day

On International Migration Day, members of the Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK) are deprived from their human rights as Iranian migrants in Europe. Their rights are actually violated by the group leaders rather than the host countries.

Each year, International Migrants’ Day is observed on 18 December. Designated by the United Nations General Assembly on 4 December 2000, in response to increasing migration around the world, the day aims to draw attention to migrants’ human rights and highlight their contribution to host societies.

However, the UN and other international human rights bodies neglect the disastrous situation of over 2 thousand MEK members who are taken as hostages in the MEK headquarters in Manez, a village near Tirana, the capital of Albania. They have no legal status in Albania. They are not considered as refugees or asylum seekers or migrants. Their identity is only defined by their membership in the Cult of Massoud Rajavi (MEK).

It is important to understand that, MEK members residing under the isolating system of the Cult of Rajavi, should be entitled to have all their human rights protected and respected, regardless of the status they have in Albania. The International community as well as the Albanian government must protect all MEK members as migrants from violence, exploitation and forced labor.

According to the UN documents, On 4 December 2000, the UN General Assembly (UNGA) designated 18 December as International Migrants Day, taking into account the large and increasing number of migrants in the world. Through its resolution A/RES/55/93, the UNGA invited Member States and others to observe the Day through the dissemination of information on human rights and fundamental freedoms of migrants, the sharing of experiences, and the design of actions to ensure protection of migrants.

The UN claims that by supporting regular pathways for migration, they can enable opportunities for migrants, better protect their rights, and contribute to greater prosperity while hostages of the MEK can never think of future and prosperity. They see no regular pathway for leaving the mental and physical bars of the Cult of Rajavi. They will succeed to escape the group’s camp if they are lucky enough to accomplish their escape plan.

The rights of the MEK members are violated by the group leaders every day. They are subjected to forced celibacy, forced labor, forced clothing, forced hijab, gender segregation, mind manipulation, isolation from the outside world including their family and friends. They need urgent help from the outside world because it is quite difficult to break through all the chains that MEK leaders have tied around them.

The UN says, “Together, one step at a time, we can continue building a world where migration is safe, orderly, and beneficial – for everyone.” In order to achieve such a valuable objective, the UN officials must pay attention to the calls from the families of hostages of the MEK. They have been longing for a phone call or face to face visit with their loved ones who have been barred by the group leaders for decades.

Mujahedin Khalq 's Terrorism

The hashtag “MEK terrorists” is trending again

The Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK) and Maryam Rajavi were once again the subject of Iranian anger and hatred at the top of Iran-related hashtags. Iranian users used the hashtag “MEK terrorists” tens of thousands of times within a few hours.
Following the fall of Bashar al-Assad’s regime in Syria, Massoud Rajavi, in a message of congratulating the “heroic people of Syria,” referred to the Syrian government’s opponents as “rebel vanguards” who came to power for “freedom, justice, and a democratic revolution.” The Syrian rebels, led by the Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) group, bear many similarities to the MEK.

Like once the MEK was, HTS is designated as a terrorist group by the United Nations Security Council and is on one of the European Union sanctions lists due to its links to Al Qaeda. The US and UK governments have also included the group on their lists of foreign terrorist organizations.

In his message of December 8, Massoud Rajavi, the leader of the MEK clearly declares that the Syrian rebels are counterparts of the MEK and their so-called resistance units in Iran, and promises the early overthrow of the Iranian government – a promise that has been repeated for nearly five decades.

These similarities have not gone unnoticed by the MEK’s warmongering American supporters in the Republican party and their media outlet Fox News. It speaks of the opportunity of the fall of Bashar al-Assad to force Iranian regime change.
The Fox News article mentions some US Republican senators who support the MEK, who we have previously seen on the list of speakers at MEK rallies. These senators consider Maryam Rajavi to be the counterpart of Mohammad al-Jolani and the National Council of Resistance of Iran to be the counterpart of Hayat Tahrir al-Sham for changing the Iranian government.

The Fox News article is the beginning of the story. A Twitter storm broke out when Fox News published the article’s title on its X social media account, along with a photo of Maryam Rajavi. The post was met with intense anger from Iranian users across the political spectrum, and eventually the hashtag #MEKTerrorists trended on X English and the hashtag “Maryam Rajavi ate shit” on X Persian. Some of the comments and replies to Fox New, on the most popular pages are noteworthy. These posts, reposts or replies are a few of the contents that contain #MEKterrorists:

Mohammad Reza Torabi, a former child soldier of the MEK:
Down with Fox News and a bunch of money-loving Republicans and anyone else who promotes the Mojahedin or Rajavi. The reality is that this old woman and her criminal husband, who occasionally issues announcements from his mouse hole and has become a homeless rooster, have long been considered dead to the Iranian people. Nothing can bring them back to life. Today is the best time to say once again #MaryamRajaviateshit.

Salome Seyednia, host of Iranian TV channel, Manoto:
Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK) is a terrorist group that has no credibility or support in Iran! They are very despised and have no standing among the Iranian people! Don’t waste your time on them!

Tina Ghazimorad, editor-In-Chief at manoto TV Newsroom:
That Fox News is promoting the MEK, a terrorist sect rooted in Marxist-Islamic ideologies, is completely absurd and beyond comprehension. Not only does it discredit you, it also insults the memory of Americans who once died. Before glorifying the leader of a sect with blood on their hands, do your homework and check the historical facts. No matter how much money they spend to sell themselves as “freedom fighters,” or how skillfully they parrot what you want to hear, their history of terrorism and betrayal is undeniable.

Sarah For Trump, Iranian-American X user:
What the fuck is this shit?
The #MEKterrorists are a bunch of Islamist-Marxist, undemocratic as*holes who force women to wear hijabs in their fucking cult. Their crap ideology screws over the U.S, Israel, and the Iranian people hate their guts.

Sarah Raviani, Iranian American X user:
The MEK is a terrorist organization that chanted “Death to America” and celebrated the 1979 U.S. Embassy seizure in Tehran after Iran fell to Khomeini.

Ali Hamid, Iranian documentary filmmaker:
To clueless U.S. politicians:
The MEK, which you support and normalize, killed dozens of Americans, including these servicemen. If Iranian lives don’t matter to you, respect your own victims’ families. Shame.

MEK killed US personel newspaper

Niyak Ghorbani, UK-based Iranian user:
Supporting the Mojahedin-e Khalq (MEK), (OIAC Iran) is akin to supporting the terrorist organisation Hamas 30 years from now—a group that has always been an enemy of Israel and the Jewish people. The MEK, allies of Saddam Hussein and Yasser Arafat, and responsible for the killing of thousands of Iranian soldiers and civilians, will have no place in a free Iran of the future. Instead, they will be brought to justice for their crimes against the Iranian people.

Saeed Ghasseminejad, Iranian economist:
MEK is a Marxist-Islamist cult with American blood on its hand.

Hillel Neuer International human rights lawyer, writer, Executive Director of United Nations Watch:
Because I occasionally appear on FoxNews, I need to inform them: this woman Maryam Rajavi and her Mojahedin-e-Khalq (MEK) are a cult. Not a credible voice at all.

The cult of Rajavi

MEK’s complex fraud scheme involving children and social benefits

Former child soldiers of the Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK) have recently brought up a pretty crucial issue about the MEK’s fraudulent techniques to raise funds through children’s social benefits in European and North American countries. However, this was not the first time that the MEK’s fraud was revealed. It had been already discovered and investigated by security bodies like the US Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and the German Police in 2001.

Several MEK members were arrested and put under investigation at the time. Susan Ghajar Azdanloo, the sister of Maryam Ghajar Azdanloo (Rajavi) was one of those members of the MEK who were arrested or subjected to investigation in December 2001 under a joint FBI/ Cologne Police Department operation.

On November 29, 2004, FBI published a detailed summary of information learned during criminal investigation of the MEK that was at the time a designated foreign terrorist organization. According to the 2004 FBI document, presented to the US Department of Justice, a year after the French Police released Maryam Rajavi, “Los Angeles investigation had determined that the MEK is currently actively involved in planning and executing acts of terrorism. The planning takes place at MEK bases in Iraq and at the Auver Sur Oise location in Paris, France. Los Angeles has consensually recorded numerous telephone calls in which MEK leaders at this French location discuss specific acts of terrorism to include bombings. Joint investigation with the French DST and the German Cologne Police Department has revealed similar findings from French and German wire taps.”

Beginning with a brief history of the group’s criminal activities, the FBI reported that its investigation had determined that the MEK was very active in fund raising. This was done through a complicated international money laundering operation that uses accounts in Turkey, Germany, France, Belgium, Norway, Sweden, Jordan and the United Arab Emirates.
The testimonies of former child soldiers of the MEK such as Atefeh Sebdani, Amir Yaghmai, Ray Torabi who has several times spoke about their fundraising activities under the command of the MEK offices in Canada, US, Sweden and France, confirm FBI’s investigations.

However, the fraud to exploit social benefits of the MEK’s children in western countries was only investigated by the Cologne Police. The report tells of a scheme organized by MEK where the group used children with multiple identities to collect social benefits in Germany, then used the money to purchase large quantities of night vision goggles and GPS systems to improve accuracy of mortar attacks in Tehran.

There were over a hundred of the children of Mujahed parents who had been smuggled by the group agents to Cologne, Germany where they were kept in team houses. Amin Golmaryami, former child soldier of the MEK, and his brothers were among those children. The group used the social salary that the German government allocated to the children while a large number of these children were then smuggled back to Iraq to be recruited in the MEK’s army. The German journalist, Luisa Hommerich from De Ziet investigated the case in December 2021, in an interview with Amin Golmaryami.

Maryam Rajavi’s sister, arrested in the joint FBI/Cologne Police operation

The FBI report offers details about those MEK members who were involved in the group’s fraud scheme in Cologne:
Susan Azdanloo, MEK member. Arrested in December 2001 in Cologne Germany in a joint FBI/Cologne Police Department operation. Involved in a complex fraud scheme involving children and social benefits.

Mohammad Ebrahim Moshiri, MEK member. Current joint FBI/Cologne Police Department subject. Fugitive from December 2001 joint FBI/Cologne Police Department operation. Involved in a complex fraud scheme involving children and social benefits. Was the MEK procurement officer for military equipment. Joint investigation showed that MOSHIRI used money from this fraud scheme to purchase equipment including night vision in Cologne Germany and then shipped it to United Arab Emirates where it was sent to MEK bases in Iraq.

Sepid Majid Salem, MEK supporter/member. Arrested in Cologne Germany during the December 2001 joint FBI/Cologne Police Department operation. A U.S. citizen claimed no affiliation with the MEK even though he was arrested in one of their houses in Cologne. Claimed to be Virginia resident. Provided 4300 Evergreen Lane #302. Annandale, VA 22003, as his last address in the US.

Bita Mahmoudi, MEK member/supporter. Current joint FBI/Cologne Police Department subject. Was arrested in December 2001 in Cologne Germany in a joint FBI/ Cologne Police Department operation. Involved in a complex fraud scheme involving children and social benefits. Recently applied for citizenship in the U.S.

Mohammad Karami, former member of the MEK explains that in 1993 and 1994 a number of charity organizations, schools and orphanages were established by the MEK agents in some western countries. According to him, Susan Ghajar Azdanloo, the younger sister of Maryam Ghajar Azdanloo (Maryam Rajavi), was also on the board of directors of one of these associations and a school that was established in the name of orphaned children, and they received funding from the government for this school.

There were definitely many other MEK agents who were involved in similar fraud schemes to confiscate social benefits of MEK children in other western countries including Sweden where Atefeh Sebdani and her brothers and a large number of other children were settled under an MEK fostering system. After the release of Atefeh Sebdani’s autobiography, the Swedish human rights and child care bodies were criticized for being so inconsiderate about such cases.

The International Human Rights Day and MEK victims

Tomorrow is the International Human Rights Day. A day to remind the world of each and every human being’s fundamental rights. International days are occasions to educate the public on issues of concern, to mobilize political will and resources to address global problems, and to celebrate and reinforce achievements of humanity.

Thus, tomorrow is an occasion for recognize the human rights of thousands of people who are involved with the oppressive cult-like system of the Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK).

Based on the United Nations’s definition, Human Rights Day, annually around the world on 10 December, commemorates the anniversary of one of the world’s most groundbreaking global pledges: the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR). “This landmark document enshrines the inalienable rights that everyone is entitled to as a human being – regardless of race, color, religion, sex, language, political or other opinion, national or social origin, property, birth or other status.”

The UDHR was proclaimed by the United Nations General Assembly in Paris on 10 December 1948 and sets out, for the first time, fundamental human rights to be universally protected. This year’s theme is: Our Rights, Our Future, Right Now.

The UN explains this theme stating, “Human rights can empower individuals and communities to forge a better tomorrow. By embracing and trusting the full power of human rights as the path to the world we want, we can become more peaceful, equal and sustainable.”

A better tomorrow for victims of the MEK will not come unless the International human rights bodies respect their human rights as well as other humans. As the UN says this Human Rights Day should focus on how human rights are a pathway to solutions, playing a critical role as a preventative, protective and transformative force for good; the good of people whose rights have been violated by Massoud and Maryam Rajavi, leaders of the Rajavi’s cult of personality.

Victims of human rights violations of the MEK are categorized in the following groups:

-Members of the MEK who are isolated from the free world in a remote camp in Albania, deprived from any contact with the outside world, under a manipulative ruling system.

-MEK members’ families, especially mothers who have been languishing a long-life separation from their beloved children who have been taken like hostages in the MEK.

-Former MEK members who are still suffering the traumas of mental and physical torture inside the MEK. They should have been gone through a deradicalizing program before integration with free society.

-A thousand Children of Mujahed Parents who were once separated from their parents in Iraq, smuggled to Europe and North America, where they were raised in the MEK’s team houses in order to exploit their social benefits or were fostered by the MEK sympathizers who abused them in several cases. Most of these children have lost the track of their birth parents or are not allowed by the MEK to contact them.

-Former child soldiers of the MEK who are hundreds of those smuggled children. They were then smuggled back to Iraq in their teen ages and were recruited as child soldiers of the MEK’s army, the so-called National Liberation Army. Some of these child soldiers were killed in military operations and clashes. Some of then are still under the mind control system of the group.

-Survivors of the MEK’s terrorist acts who have been injured, paralyzed and/or have lost one or more family members in the terrorist operations of the MEK against civilians.

As the UN states, this year’s theme of Human Rights Day is a call to acknowledge the importance and relevance of human rights in our everyday lives. “We have an opportunity to change perceptions by speaking up against hate speech, correcting misinformation and countering disinformation.”

The leader of the MEK and the MEK-run media are actually propaganda machines that propagate hate speech, misinformation and disinformation. They suppress any voice that reveals their atrocities and even any voice that criticizes their attitudes. This is the time to mobilize action to reinvigorate a global movement for human rights of the MEK victims.
