Mohamamdreza Torabi
Mujahedin Khalq; A proxy force

Don’t fall for the MEK’s smoke and mirror games

Following the Fox News statement on the support by 150 US lawmakers for the MEK, Former child soldier, Ray Torabi (Mohammad Reza Torabi) addressed the signatories of the resolution on his X account informing them that the MEK is “an outdated cult with no popular support inside Iran who try to stay relevant by spending their laundered money on buying fake support from politicians who have a price tag”.

Torabi wrote an exemplified first-hand account about the hypocritic and fraudulent approach of the MEK leaders since past until now:
Days prior to the 2003 invasion of Iraq by Coalition forces, MEK leader Massoud Rajavi had ordered all forces (approximately 3000 members) to station alongside the Iran-Iraq border. His strategy was that while Coalition forces are occupied with Saddam’s army, at the right time we will attack Iran and overthrow the mullahs’ regime! Yes it was a ridiculous strategy. One that could have led to the slaughter of all MEK forces, once and for all. But Rajavi was serious about it. Luckily the order never came and I live to tell the story. Once it was imminent that Saddam’s army had fallen and his troops had turned their backs on him and abandoned their stations, we began carrying out secret reconnaissance missions into Iraqi Army bases that had been completely abandoned. We were looking for tanks and military equipment, specifically T60s and T72s.

These tanks were then transferred to MEK bases in the dark hours of the night and quickly spray painted with MEK military codes and flags.

The goal wasn’t even to eventually use these tanks, the majority of which had gone through a self-demolition procedure by the crew prior to abandonment, but to show on paper that the MEK owned several thousand tanks. At the time, talks between the US Army and MEK officials had begun and Rajavi knew his army had to give up all of it weapons and surrender.

But it wanted to look strong on paper. And so we did. In a matter of days, we ended up adding several hundred more tanks to the MEK’s arsenal, which was then handed over to the US Army. Many of these tanks weren’t even operational anymore, but counted on paper as the MEK’S firepower. I remember that a few years later, in one of Rajavi’s meetings with all MEK members in Camp Ashraf, where he connected with us via audio, he listed the numbers of tanks and military vehicles and equipment we had handed over to the US Army and bragged that based on the number of tanks we “owned”, we were “the most powerful army in the Middle East”.

Today, it’s the same story. The MEK looks strong on paper. They spend the fortunes they accumulated during the 90s illegally selling Saddam’s oil in black markets on buying worn-out politicians to give paid speeches at their rallies and conferences. They collect signatures from members of Congress and parliamentarians across the world by using the names of fallen Iranian youths like Masha Amini, who had no association with the MEK, and write up fancy statements, but on the ground have no popular support. In fact, they are loathed by the Iranian people for the crimes they committed against their own countrymen during the Iran-Iraq War, where they sided with Saddam and betrayed their country.

They are consisted of some 2500 members around the world with the average age of almost 60. Their Marxist-Islamic ideology no longer sells in Iran and the younger generations don’t even know who they are.
But on paper, Maryam Rajavi is the self proclaimed leader of the “resistance”.

Don’t fall for their smoke and mirror games.

Did you know that in 1998, when I was 16 years old and awaited being sent to Iraq to join MEK ranks as a child soldier, a top NCRI/MEK official took me along with him on a trip to Arkansas, where we collected money (tens of thousands of dollars in cash) from MEK supporters to “purchase night vision goggles” for MEK’s teams infiltrating into Iran and carrying out military operations? It was illegal because at the time, the MEK was still on the US Foreign Terrorist Organizations list.
I don’t want to name him yet but it seems Fox News loves him.

Did you know that me and the other child soldiers who were recruited from Canada and the US in the late 90s by the MEK and sent to Camp Ashraf in Iraq, lived in NCRI headquarters in Washington DC the entire time? That’s where we were indoctrinated and eventually given illegal fake travel documents by MEK/NCRI officials, with which we were smuggled into Iraq.

That’s also where the MEK’s fake charity scheme, through which they laundered money, was being operated and controlled from.

MEK/NCRI leaders and officials talking about freedom and democracy and human rights is a joke. These people are criminals and must be tried in an international tribunal.

Maryam Rajavi
Mujahedin Khalq; A proxy force

Fox News betray Iranians by promoting the MEK

Fox News, reported that bipartisan group of 151 lawmakers is rallying around a resolution to support the Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK). In its statement on X platform, Fox News indicated that 150 American politicians have openly betrayed the freedom-seeking people of Iran. They are imposing an ideology that has been actually acting against freedom and democracy for near 5 decades.

According to the report, the resolution, led by Rep. Tom McClintock, R-Calif., claims support for the Iranian people and their stated desire for a “democratic, secular and non-nuclear” Iran through regime change by the MEK which is a formerly terrorist designated group by the US State Department. The group has a dark background and it is despised by the Iranian public.

Fox News’s statement was slammed by thousands of Iranians around the world using the hashtags #MEKTerrorists and #NCRTerrorists. The users tried to inform the US politicians that the MEK can not be considered as the alternative of the Iranian government based on a large number of atrocities committed by its disappeared leader, Massoud Rajavi and its public leader, Maryam Rajavi.

comment on Foxnews statement on X

Here’s a brief account of the documented violent and terrorist activities attributed to the MEK/PMOI/NCRI/MKO:

Terrorist Attacks and Murder of Americans

Founded in 1965 as an Islamist-Marxist militia, MEK was a U.S.-designated Foreign Terrorist Organization (FTO) from 1997-2012.

In the 1970s, it assassinated U.S. military personnel in Iran—colonels Paul R. Shaffer, John H. Turner, and Lewis Lee Hawkins—targeting them as “imperialist” symbols.
It bombed Western businesses and, in 1992, attacked Iranian diplomatic missions in 10 countries, including the U.S. In 2003, 170 MEK members including their she-guru Maryam Rajavi, were arrested in France for plotting terrorist attacks. The French Police confiscated large amounts of money and documents of money laundering. Eventually dozens of group members committed self-immolation to protest the arrest of Maryam Rajavi. Two women died.

Alliance with Saddam Hussein

Exiled from Iran in the 1980s, MEK allied with Saddam Hussein, who funded and armed it. During the Iran-Iraq War (1980-1988), it fought Iran from Camp Ashraf. In 1988, its Operation Forough Javidan—a failed invasion—killed thousands of Iranian civilians, deepening its infamy as a traitor group among Iranians.

Crimes Against Humanity in Iraq

In 2010, the Iraqi High Tribunal issued arrest warrants for 39 MEK members, including Maryam Rajavi, for crimes against humanity tied to their role in suppressing the 1991 uprisings of Kurds and Shiites under Saddam’s regime, further evidencing their brutality and collaboration with dictators. “Take the Kurds under the tanks! Keep your bullets for Iranian soldiers!”, a very famous quote by Maryam to her forces in the operation to suppress Kurds.

Torture and Human Rights Abuses

MEK operates as a cult, enforcing control through horrific abuses. Defectors report torture, solitary confinement, and brainwashing. Women face oppressions, while families are separated, with children trafficked to Europe. Female members were coerced into sexual relations with Masoud Rajavi, with Maryam Rajavi sanctioning it via “vows.” Refusal meant disappearance.

Oppressive Practices

MEK claims to support democracy, but enforces mandatory hijab, gender segregation, sexual control, and emotional isolation. Members lack outside media, limited to “Mujahedin television” looping Rajavi speeches. Its theocratic practices clash with Iranians aspirations for democracy.

Propaganda and Deception

MEK runs “troll farms” in Albania, with over 1,000 members using fake accounts to spread pro-Rajavi propaganda in English, Farsi, and Arabic across social media and news comments. It hides behind aliases like the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), falsely posing as a democratic option. Defectors reveal orders to praise pro-MEK figures and attack critics.

Anti-American nature

Backing the U.S. Embassy takeover and hostage crisis, the MEK chanted anti-American slogans. “May America be annihilated” and “Death to America by blood and bonfire”—show its radicalism. After clashing with the Iranian government, it turned to violence and exile, never shedding its authoritarian core.

Removal from FTO list

The U.S. delisted MEK in 2012 after heavy lobbying, but internal reports flagged its violent history and cult-like nature. This wasn’t a clean slate—its past, including killing Americans and aiding Saddam, lingers. In Albania, ex-military intelligence described “extraordinary psychological violence and threats of murder” in its camps.

Now, the Iranian people ask Fox News a crucial question: as a media outlet that claims to stand for freedom and democracy, based on which survey, which vote of the people, which historical value, and what legitimacy did you decide to recognize a cult-like terrorist group—one that itself opposes the freedom of the Iranian people—as a symbol of freedom and democracy?
In fact, there has been no survey or poll. The American sponsors of the MEK just follow the rule of money. The MEK/ NCR was a terrorist cult but it turned out to be “freedom fighter” after it paid millions of dollars as speaking fees to the high-profile figures.

Iran

Report on the 29th court session of the MEK’s trial

The 29th court session examining the charges against 104 members of the Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK) as well as the organization’s nature as a legal entity, was held on February 18 in branch 11 of the Criminal Court of Tehran Province, presided over by Judge Amir Reza Dehghani.

The judge announced the opening of the court saying: Given the presence of the prosecutor’s representative, the lawyers of the plaintiffs and defendants, and some of the plaintiffs in the session, and the formality and openness of the court, in compliance with all the formalities of the Criminal Procedure Code, especially Articles 2, 3, 5, 7, and Articles 296, 297, 315, and 382 of this law, we will begin the continuation of the first session by declaring it official and public.

The plaintiff’s lawyer, Masoud Maddah, said: “Regarding the terrorist crimes of the MEK, in the previous session we applied the legal dimensions of this issue to the crime of leading a criminal group and its organization with engineering operations.

In this session, I will apply the examples and material elements of the crime of leading a criminal group, the subject of Article 130 of the Islamic Penal Code, to one of the most pivotal crimes that the MEK committed, which was the discussion of team houses and repeated assassinations and torture.”

According to lawyer Maddah, it is not necessarily the case that the leaders of the MEK themselves are directly involved in criminal operations. It is not the case that in the bombings, assassinations, and tortures, need to be present in the crimes and carry them out.

Presenting some examples of the MEK crimes, the lawyer said, “At one point in time, the MEK took actions such as assassinating civilians to demonstrate its existence, as I presented the confessions of a MEK member named Mehran Asadeghi in the previous session. He stated that the organization ordered us to carry out these terrorist acts if 30 out of every 50 people were ordinary people so that the organization would survive and demonstrate its existence. They reproduce numerous pamphlets and distribute them among their members in team houses.”

Massoud Khodabandeh, a defected member of the MEK who had been a member of the group for 16 years, appeared on the stand and swore to tell nothing but the truth in court.

Khodabandeh said in court: “I became acquainted with the organization a few years before the revolution, and then I went to England and became a member of the organization, and I was in Iranian Kurdistan for 2 years. After that, I went to Iraq with Massoud Rajavi. I traveled to Iraq and Europe. I took Maryam Rajavi from Iraq to France. In France, I decided to leave the organization. I had 2 passports, which I handed in and went to London, and I have been in contact with the MEK since 1998. With the help of my wife, I wrote 3 books about the MEK. During this time, I also participated in a court as a witness. I appeared in this court today. I confirm all the books and pamphlets introduced in the court.”

The former member of the MEK, said: “I was in the organization for 15 years. I was present in England as a supporter. We established the Committee to Support the People’s Mojahedin in London with the help of Dr. Reza Raisi. Then I went to prison. After my release, I went to Paris. I was assigned to take Radio Mojahedin to the Sardasht region, where I was in this region for 2 years. After that, I went to Iraq and Paris. In Paris, I was responsible for protecting Bani Sadr’s daughter. After Massoud Rajavi’s divorce from Bani Sadr’s daughter, I was with Maryam Rajavi. I was on the team to take over Camp Ashraf and develop it. Sometime later, I left the organization and since then I have been collecting materials related to the Mojahedin.”

Massoud Khodabandeh said: “The process of producing a person who straps a bomb to himself and detonates it is already in his book. They named people as leaders, they tortured these people and ordered others to torture them. I took Mehdi Abrishamchi and took him to Kurdistan. When this person came, he was different from the person who tortured him later, just like Massoud Rajavi, whom we saw earlier, was different from the Rajavi who went to Saddam. Ugliness gradually happens and an ordinary person cannot suddenly become a torturer.”

He said: “In meetings, men were forced to curse their wives and divorce their wives. One of these people, named Commander Kamal, was in that meeting and refused to accept it, so they took him out and half an hour later they said he had set himself on fire. In fact, Massoud and his apparatus claimed that they were doing these things against me and that these people should be eliminated in a way that their voices would not be heard. There is a voice of Massoud in a meeting saying how much money to take and carry out a terrorist act.”

Khodabandeh continued: “During Saddam’s era, if I wanted to implement a project, they would pay for it, but this has not happened for years and they cannot invite someone from, for example, Canada, pay for his accommodation and other expenses to participate in the MKO gatherings, so they use people from within the same country. An American senator told me that when someone is attacking the Islamic Republic, we do not become enemies with him.”

The judge asked: When did these statements come from?
Khodabandeh replied: “Four or five years ago. Currently, the MKO has changed shape. At one time, this organization, centered on Saddam and Massoud Rajavi, only carried out military terrorist operations. This military terrorist apparatus became an information and propaganda apparatus after Turki Faisal (who announced Massoud Rajavi’s death without coordination). The core of this organization was also entrusted to Turki Faisal and Maryam Rajavi. After Saddam’s death, there was no place for Massoud Rajavi in this organization, so he had to be put aside, dead or alive. I tried many times to speak in the Brussels court, but they did not allow me to do so.”

A Ukrainian’s account of attending the MEK demonstration

The anti-Iranian demonstration that the MEK organized in Paris on February 8th was, as always, scandalous.

In addition to the numerous Ukrainian flags that showed the presence of hundreds of Ukrainian refugees at the event, there were also reports of the dissatisfaction of these deceived participants.

The image that was viewed the most on social media and was circulated was a tweet from a Ukrainian participant who expressed his dissatisfaction with the service provided by the organizers of the demonstration and blamed Iranians based on the fraudulent performance of the MEK.

This Ukrainian participant wrote in his tweet: “Iranians are deceitful and liar. Yesterday, an Iranian organization invited me to a demonstration against Russia and for support my country, promising hospitality and a tour of Paris, but then I realized that it was a lie and at the beginning of the ceremony they took my country’s flags from me. These same fraudsters are allies of Russia.”

A Ukrainian’s account of attending the MEK demonstration

This is while the National Council of Resistance, as the MEK’s propaganda vitrine, has claimed in its reports that Ukrainians have joined their anti-Iranian demonstrations in a spontaneous wave.

For example, the Euronews report mentions a 37-year-old Ukrainian nurse who now lives in Germany, as “one of the people who came to Paris to join the Iranian protesters.”

For a war-torn Ukrainian who has settled in European countries with thousands of hardships, a tour of Paris could be a dream trip that can be realized by the MEK buses. It may be that a little political motivation and shared anti-Iranian sentiments are also the spice of this Paris friendship, but apparently the MEK’s blunder during the demonstration and reception has caused a scandal.

This is not the first time that the Cult of Rajavi has sent vulnerable refugees and displaced persons from all over Europe to Paris with the promise of lunch and sandwiches and a tour of Paris.

Iranian judiciary's notice to MEK members
Former members of the MEK

Defeat of the MEK agents in another court

Mohammad Reza (Ray) Torabi, a former child soldier of the Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK), informed that the complaint of one of the MEK agents against him was defeated in court.

In 2017, after 18 years of membership in the MEK, Mohammad Reza Torabi left it and a while later, along with a number of other MEK children, shed light on his experience within the cult-like and violent nature of the group. They speak out about the atrocities of the MEK leaders against their own members.

On January 31, 2025, he announced on his account on the X social network that the complaint of one of the MEK supporters against him in a court in Germany was declared closed:
Some time ago, I announced that the MEK filed a legal complaint against me in an attempt to silence me. Today, the prosecutor declared the case closed due to the lack of necessary evidence from the plaintiff. This complaint was filed very cleverly by an MEK sympathizer in Germany. He had stated that I had publicly “slandered” him and declared him as “an MEK sympathizer”, when in fact he was not and the MEK is a “terrorist organization.” Therefore, the German police and prosecutors were obliged to seriously pursue the case. However, with a little searching, it became clear that this foolish supporter had forgotten that he himself had declared on his official account that “I am a Mujahed”. His real name, which was only revealed to me after the police received his official complaint, was also among one of the signatories of some MEK statements and declarations. With my submission of these documents, the entire case was declared closed in less than a month.

Mohammad Reza Torabi, who had previously received death threats from MEK agents, had firmly declared in a video to the leaders of the group that the more they threatened him, the more he would raise his voice and was willing to sacrifice his life for the truth so that the true nature of the MEK would be revealed to the Iranian people. He also announced in the continuation of this complaint that he would continue to fight against Massoud Rajavi’s cult:

But now it is my turn to file a complaint. Because he officially lied to the police in his complaint, and this is considered a serious crime in Germany. The irony of the matter is that he himself had used the hashtag #Please_Court in his tweet!

In his recent post, Torabi also explained the hypocritical tactics that MEK agents use on social media to attract users:
Finally, I will say from experience that someone swearing at the MEK and even calling them “terrorists” is not fundamentally proof that he is not a Mujahed or a supporter of the group. The MEK and their supporters are very hypocritical and far-fetched.

Trial of MEK leaders in Tehran
Iran

Report on the 28th Session of the Court Investigating the Charges of the MEK

The twenty-eighth session of the court investigating the crimes of the Mujahedin- Khalq (MEK) was held on Tuesday, February 4, 2025, presided over by Judge Dehghan.

Maddah, the plaintiffs’ lawyer, told the court that the leaders of the MEK prioritized advancing their own goals and did not care about the lives of the people. Quoting from Mehran Asdaqi, the arrested member of an MEK team house, he said, “When we entered the new team house, we saw that they had made lead objects for us and taught us to hit people on the back of the head with these objects to quickly knock them unconscious; they had equipped the bathroom in the house and the bathroom was insulated so that if we wanted to torture them in it, the sound would not escape, and they had already sent teams to dig graves so that we could quickly bury the bodies.”

Mahmoud Asemanpanah, a former member of the MEK who appeared as a witness in court, explained his 17-year involvement in the terrorist group MEK.

He said that in 1988, after being deceived by the MEK terrorist group’s propaganda, he went to Ashraf through a difficult path.

Asemanpanah’s account of his journey to join the MEK, his life in the group, and his efforts to leave and return home to his family is interesting, but even more interesting is the concern of this defected member for his friends who are still members of the group.

He said that he is doing everything he can to discredit the MEK and encourage his remaining friends in Ashraf to return to the country.

Telling the story of his carefree return to the country, Asemanpanah said: “I am now working as a painter; I have my own family and life, and I want to inform those who remain in Ashraf that everything the group says about the consequences of returning to Iran is a lie.”

Ardeshir Darvishi, another defected member of the MEK, was also present at the 28th court session.

Darvishi said: “When I joined the group, I touched and felt some realities and realized that what the organization had told the world about itself was completely different from what I was observing; the group ruined our understanding, intelligence, or humanity; it took away our emotions.”

Darvishi spoke of the suffering and psychological pressure that had plagued him since 2004, when he separated from the MEK terrorist group.

This defected MEK member said: “When I escaped from the group, the mobile phone that is available to everyone was unknown to me; I was deprived of having a phone or even a radio; in Camp Ashraf, which was built with the help of Saddam and the Western world, they had cut off our connection with the outside world.

Then, the lawyer mentioned the two major crimes of the terrorist group, the MEK, in the 1980s, namely the bombing of the Prime Minister’s office and the Republican Party. Jafar Khoramdal, the committee’s operations officer and a member of the Central Committee, also took the stand to explain.

While providing details about the incidents, he made some points regarding the torture committed by MEK members, saying: “I was given the responsibility of identifying the people who had been tortured by the MEK agents; the condition of some of the victims was so bad that no one was willing to accept this responsibility.”

Ahmad Karimpour, head of the country’s bomb check and neutralization unit, also attended the stand and provided specialized explanations about the explosion of the Republic party building.

He pointed out an important point and said: The bomb used had a complex system and the four countries, England, Germany, America, and France, had the ability to manufacture that bomb, but we were unable to determine which country the bomb was manufactured in.

In response to Judge Dehghani’s question about the possibility of purchasing this bomb on the black market, Karimpour stated: “The type of bomb was not such that it could be purchased on the market.”

During the twenty-eight sessions of the court investigating the crimes of the MEK, numerous related books and films were introduced; although the films introduced were all about the crimes of the MEK, the books introduced covered a wider range of topics, from MEK approaches to legal debates.

It was around 1:00 p.m. when Judge Dehghani announced the end of the twenty-eighth court session and said the next court session would be held on February 18.

Nasser Mohammadi's family's request to the head of Tehran Criminal Court
Mujahedin Khalq Organization members' families

Nasser Mohammadi’s family’s request to the head of Tehran Criminal Court

The Mohammadi family is among the families of victims of the Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK), one of those families whose members were murdered by the group.

During the Iran-Iraq War, Nasser Mohammadi was captured by the Mujahedin-e Khalq forces, who were fighting alongside Saddam Hussein’s army against their homeland. He was then forced by pressure and threats to participate in the group’s cross border operation against Iran, named Forough Javidan (Eternal Light). Since Nasser did not want to take up arms against his homeland, he attempted to flee to Iranian soil near the border, but in the presence of eyewitnesses, he was shot in the back by the MEK agents and was killed.

Naser Mohammadi’ family in a protest gathering among other Nejat families

Nasser Mohammadi’s family followed up on this important issue as soon as they learned about his murder by MEK agents. Nasser’s brother Houshang Mohammadi, while in Camp Ashraf in Iraq, directly asked the MEK leaders for an explanation and requested evidence, but as usual, they distorted the truth and identified the Iranian government as the killer of his brother. This claim was not accepted by Houshang, and the issue even escalated into a verbal altercation.

Due to the existence of eyewitnesses to Nasser’s killing by the MEK, his family has been suing the MEK for the murder of their brother since those days. The Mohanmmadis are among the plaintiff families against the leaders of the MEK in the process of their trial. They are members of Nejat Society.

On Saturday, February 1st, this family met with other members of Nejat Society’s office in Zanjan Province. Pursuing the legal process against the MEK leaders and the group itself as a legal entity, through a short video message, they asked the honored head of Branch 11 of the Criminal Court of Tehran Province to consider their family’s complaint.
