My father is a captive of Mojahedin-e Khalq Cult

Her eyes fill with tears when she talks about her father. 35 years has passed, she still is awaiting the return of her father.

She looks out for at least a news of her father’s well-being. She awaits her father’s release from the bars of MKO Cult.

Ms. Fatemeh Alimirzaei was a little girl when the Rajavi’s mercenaries tricked her father, Reza into joining the Cult. Now she is married and has a little beautiful daughter.

Ms. Fatemeh Alimirzaei came to Nejat Society office in accompany with her elderly mother to get a news of her father. They wanted to know if Reza was among those Camp Liberty residents who have recently transferred to Albania.

They said:” Why no human rights body do probe our pleas as suffering families of deceived members of the MKO Cult?!

Why don’t they help us with visiting our beloved family members?!Why do the MKO Cult leaders discriminately select some members to be relocated in Tirana?!Why do the Cult leaders have left alone my father and other members in the insecure country of Iraq?!

Family of MKO hostages: At least send us a new photo of our beloveds!!

The suffering sisters of two Camp Liberty residents ask human right bodies to help them have a short visit with their beloved brothers; Mohammadreza and Ahmadreza.

Ahmadreza and Mohammadreza Iranpour, traveled to Turkey in 2002. They wanted to immigrate to a European country to make a better life there.

Unfortunately, in Turkey the MKO recruiters tricked them into joining the group. They were then transferred to Camp Ashraf, Iraq. For a long time the Iranpour family had no news of them until they were informed of Mohammadreza and Ahmadreza whereabouts through some defectors of the MKO cult.

In January 2004 they succeeded to meet their beloved brothers at Camp Ashraf. 20 MKO members accompanied Mohammadreza and Ahmadreza in the meeting in order the meeting not to be private.

From then on the Iranpour family have traveled to MKO Camps in Iraq several times to have a visit with their beloved brothers or at least get a news of them, still they were not allowed.

The Iranpour family – the same as many other families of MKO hostages – have written several letters to human right bodies to help them contact their beloveds. However they have received no reply. In their recent complaint open letter to UNHCR in Iraq they write:

“We are Mahmonir and Raheleh Iranpour. Our brothers; Ahmadreza and Mohammadreza are imprisoned at Camp Liberty. We have several times sent you letters. However you didn’t reply us. We traveled to Iraq but you ignored us. Not only didn’t you facilitate our visit with our brothers, but also you didn’t let us meet yourselves. You even didn’t accept our letters.

You deprived us of our basic right which is to visit our family memebrs … we now have a demand … it is now 13 years that we have not visited our beloved Mohammadreza and Ahmadreza. ..

Now that based on the Rajavis wishes you don’t let us meet our beloveds, please send us a new photo of them at least to see their faces after such a long time…”

It is worth mentioning that the third group of MKO hostages’ families have traveled to Camp Liberty, trying to get help to be allowed to visit their loved ones.

The families have lodged official complaints with UN and Iraqi government officials which include documents showing that Rajavi is paying bribes to some individuals in the UN office so that they will stop anyone running away from the camp”, Iraninterlink website reported.

Iraqi Newspaper on families of MKO hostages

Following the recent trip of the third group of Liberty residents’ families to Iraq, the Iraqi mass media widely covered the news of the event.

Iraqi newspapers and websites published reports on grieves of families of residents, who are not allowed to visit their loved ones taken as hostages by leaders of the Mujahedin Khalq Organization (the MKO/the cult of Rajavi).

Iraqi official newspapers such as Kul al Akhbar and news websites like Babil News, Ketabat fil Mizan and Wikileaks Baghdad published letters written by the families and reported on their efforts to visit their loved ones in Camp Liberty.

In a full-page report, Kul al Akhbar reported on the activities of the picketing families in front of Camp Liberty, interviewing some of them. The report included photos of the picketing families under the title: “A number of Iranian families told Kul al Akhbar the tragic story of their grieving children.”

“Parents who are awaiting the visit of their dear ones despite all troubles”, the report describes the families. “Who help their desires come true?”

The newspaper calls Iraqi Government, the United Nations and all human rights bodies to pressure the MKO leaders to evacuate Camp Liberty.

Kul al Akhbar reported that in Camp Liberty human rights are violated; people are terribly deprived of freedom. Hostages are not allowed to contact their families and families – who come from different towns of Iran- are not permitted to meet their children even for an hour. Instead, families are verbally abused and attacked by the brainwashed members of the group.

After 12 years families of Rajavi cult hostages in Camp Liberty demand UNAMI action

Today over 30 families from different provinces in Iran have arrived at the gates of Camp Liberty. They want simply to have the right to visit their loved ones. They are asking the UNHCR and UNAMI as well as Ms Jane Holl Lute, the UN Special Adviser for Relocation of Camp Liberty Residents to Outside Iraq, why is it that 12 years after the fall of Saddam Hussein (the benefactor of fugitive terrorist leader Massoud Rajavi), there is still no sign that the terrorists’ camp will close and the residents held hostage by the MEK leaders will be rescued and taken to safety. Why, after twelve years do the families of Camp Liberty residents still not have access to their loved ones? What is preventing anyone from helping these people and what power lies behind supporting the hostage taker to the point that all the affairs of the camp are still in the hands of the criminal Massoud Rajavi and his henchmen?

Rajavi denies that the families are “real” and claims that these are all “agents of Iranian intelligence services” coming to “kill” the members of the “National Liberation Army” which is about to “topple” the Iranian regime and its puppet regime i.e. Iraqi government.

The families have brought with them all the documentation necessary to prove their legal position and their family relations with the hostages inside the camp. They have handed these documents to the Iraqi and UN authorities demanding action and are waiting for some result.

At the same time Nejat Society announced today that Ashur Varshi escaped from Camp Liberty and immediately contacted his family.

Link to the source:

Ashur Varshi escaped Camp Liberty and contact his family

Mr. Varshi defected the Mojahedin- e Khalq group and managed to run away the Cult after 27 years.

Ashur Varshi now resides in a hotel in Baghdad, Iraq. As soon as he stepped the free world, Ashur called his brother; Ghorban. He introduced himself and said that he was free, living in a hotel in Baghdad. His brother was shocked and couldn’t stop crying. The Varshi family were really happy they could hear Ashur’s voice after nearly three decades.

Ashur asked to talk to his parents. He said that he missed his mother a lot. Unfortunately his parents were dead while he was captive of MKO Cult.

Another camp liberty resident escaped along with Ashur. Mr. Mahmoud Ruhollahi is from Babolsar and now resides in the same hotel as Ashur.

Does the UN recognize our right to meet our children?

Mr. Ghodrat Sedigh is an aged father of one of Mujahedin-e Khalq hostages; Mohammadreza. He has recently went to Camp Liberty in accompany with some other families of Rajavis’ hostages. In an interview with Nejat Society he defines his trip to Camp Liberty, Iraq:

Rajavis henchmen started swearing at us and throwing stones as soon as we arrived at Camp Liberty gate. I was there just to visit my son. I was neither military man nor did I have government job.

We stayed at Camp Liberty gate for three days.

I’d even be happy to see my son from a distance where I could recognize his face, still the Cult leaders denied.

We visited Iraqi MPs at the parliament. The Deputy Prime Minister promised to peruse our demands after the Christmas holidays. Our only demand as families of Camp Liberty residents is to visit our beloved children. ..

A representative from the UN who participated the meeting also promised to facilitate the meeting between us and our children at UN base near Camp Liberty.

We returned to Iran hoping the visit with our beloved ones be expedited.

At the end I want to ask some questions: does the UN recognize our right to meet our children? If yes, why don’t they oppose Rajavi not to enslave our children..?

Is there any legal authority to investigate the Rajavis’ crimes?

My mother divorced her husband during the MEK Ideological revolution

The long-time MEK supporter Ebrahim Mohammad Rahimi is dying of brain cancer in a London hospital. His son Sepher Mohammad Rahimi also in London wants to contact his mother, who is in Iraq. The MEK’s response is swearing and defamation – saying Ebrahim has covertly worked for the Iranian regime for many years.

This week, Sepher wrote to the UNHCR and the ICRC refuting the MEK’s statements.

He added, “during the ideological revolution inside the MEK, my mother divorced her husband. That has nothing to do with me. Why is she refusing to speak with me, her child? Neither I nor my father have ever said a single word against the MEK. Please arrange contact with her before he dies.”

Ebrahim Mohammad Rahimi spent many years with the MEK. He eventually managed to escape the camp in Iraq by taking refuge in the American run TIPF for four years before getting back to London. During the internal revolution of the MEK, Rahimi sent his son, Sepher, live with his grandparents in Iran. Sepher has now returned to London where his father is terminally ill in hospital. Sepher’s mother is still with the MEK and Rahimi and his son have tried to make contact with her before he dies. They have now begun asking MEK lobbyists for help since the MEK leaders only reacted by calling them “agents of the Iranian regime”.

Endorsing the families’ certain right to visit their loved ones, the Iraqi MPs reiterated that the pretext that nobody in the Camp Liberty is willing to visit his family is not acceptable.

During the session it was decided that the MPs form a committee in accompany with Foreign and Human Rights Ministries. A delegation is then supposed to visit Camp Liberty and state the families’ demands. The committee is also supposed to visit Western countries’ embassies in Baghdad asking them to give refuge to the TTL residents as they are no more safe in Iraq.

The MPs also reiterated that the Iraqi government and nation as well as all political parties do not tolerate the former Iraqi dictator’s allies in the Iraqi soil.

Families of Liberty Residents at the Doors

Second group of families of Liberty residents went to the camp near Baghdad, Iraq.

On Friday November 20th, another group of families of residents of Camp Liberty – taken as hostages by the Mujahedin Khalq Organization (the MKO) picketed in front of the camp in an effort to get news about their loved ones there.

These families demand the local authorities of the UNHCR to aid them with information about their dear ones who are not allowed to visit them.

The families were from Eastern Azarbayjan, Markazi and Isfahan provinces. They stayed the previous night in a hotel in Baghdad. They were present in front of the doors of Liberty, on Friday morning at 10 O’clock.

They are determined not to leave the camp unless the UNHCR gives them proper information about the destiny of their children and unless they are able to have a short visit with them.

As well as the first time, using loudspeakers, cellphones and cameras was forbidden for the families but they tried to cry the names of the children so energetically that they could hear them. They also tried to enter the Camp but they were not allowed.

They called on all human rights activists including Europe-based defectors of the MKO to support the action taken by the families and to put pressure on the UNHCR to allow families to visit their children. The UN should answer why it is acting in line with the ambitions of the Rajavis.
