After more than four decades of expectations by several thousand families of Iranian terror victims, the first session of the historic trial of 104 members of the terrorist group Mujahedin-e-Khalq Organization (MKO) is scheduled to be held in Tehran on Tuesday, December 12, 2023, Habilian Association that protects families of terrorism victims in Iran said.
However, it seems that this event is more important for this group which is responsible for those horrible acts of terror in the country, Habilian Association said in a report which was cited by the IRNA on Tuesday.
Since the day Iranian judicial authorities announced that they plan to prosecute fugitive members of the MKO, we have been witnessing hysterical reactions by this terrorist group which indicates the extent of their concerns regarding the consequences of this trial. As the most recent example of this hysteria, the MKO announced via its official media that it has called its members to carry out 100 terrorist operations in different parts of Iran as a reaction to the trial, whose first session was set to be held three days later.
Following the MKO’s forced disarmament after the US invasion of Iraq in 2003 and the fall of Saddam Hussein, the main supporter of the group, it has attempted to pose as a democratic group that advocates a peaceful regime change in Iran to deceive some Western politicians.
Activation of the MKO’s terrorist cells known as “rebel centers” in the country reveals how fake its democratic and peaceful slogans are. However, perhaps no event could arouse this hysteria in the MKO than holding an unprecedented and historic trial over their crimes during the 1980s, namely the killing of thousands of innocent civilians through bombing and armed activities, to the extent that they have called for 100 terrorist acts to be carried out in the country.
Undoubtedly, a nation that has put behind such a harsh and cruel period not only will not give up on the prosecution of the murderers of its children, but it will be more determined to do such actions to shed light on the nature of this terrorist group for the world public opinion.
