The European Union moves to distance itself from the Mojahedin-e Khalq Organization after the prime minister of Slovenia participated in the terrorist organization’s annual conference. Rights activists say any support given to the MKO by EU officials must be condemned.
The People’s Mujahedin Organization of Iran, known better by its acronym the MKO, is a terrorist group responsible for the deaths of thousands of Iranian civilians.
Over the past four decades, the group has been committed to overthrowing the Islamic Republic of Iran through every possible means.
The notorious group sided with Saddam Hussein during Iraq’s war with Iran in the 1980s, but fell out of favor with Baghdad after he was toppled by a US-led invasion in 2003.

Since then, the group has desperately been looking for a new rich godfather for survival. Over the last few years, the terrorist group has developed close relations with the deep-pocket Saudis.
The two sides have done little to hide their ties. Quite the contrary, every now and then, they seek to flaunt their romance, in one way or another.
False claimants of democracy with terrorist backgrounds and their affiliation with foreigners, brutally injured a respected woman who just wanted to vote, Mehdi Hosseini tweeted on Friday, noting that the Iranian embassy will pursue the assault.
The presidential election was staged at 11 polling stations across the UK. Meanwhile, some counter-revolutionary groups gathered in front of polling stations trying to disturb the voting process.
Protestors have gathered in front of the Iranian consulate office in London and forced voters not to vote by pouring paint on them, according to IRNA.

Tehran Times Reported that some members of the terrorist Mojahedin Khalq Organization (MKO), also known MEK, gathered around in Wellington, New Zealand, to harass the voters. They also gathered in Sydney, Australia, and London, Britain, insulting and throwing stuff at voters coming out of the Iranian embassy.
MEK members also attacked voters in Birmingham (Britain), severely injuring voters. Reports say that some had to go to hospitals for treatment.
In a cult, both women and men suffer in the iron grip of charismatic and authoritarian cult leaders, however, women followers face a unique set of life-altering issues — and those unique issues often become the focus of media coverage of cult cases.
According to Alexandra Stein, the author of “Terror, Love and Brainwashing: Attachment in Cults and Totalitarian Systems”, Women’s right to control their bodies, their child-bearing, their sexuality and their mothering are all taken away in cults as the leader grabs control of these most intimate parts of their lives.
The Mujahedin-e Khalq Organization (MeK) is one of these cults which has confined hundreds of women to its walled compound, once in northeast Iraq and now in southeast Europe, on the pretext of protecting their rights. A number of violations of women’s rights have been reported so far by a number of its defected members and international rights groups and institutions.
Habilian Association has published a bulletin which contains ten articles covering the issue of Women’s rights abuses within the MEK camps.

Having lost over 17,000 people in terror attacks, Iran is a major victim of terrorism. Press TV has visited an Iranian family that was exposed to a terror attack carried out by a formidable US-backed terror group, known as the MKO.
The saying goes that oblivion is a bliss, but to 29-year-old Mohammad, it’s hard to forget a dark memory that not only left him handicapped, but took away all his childhood dreams.
Some 22 years ago, Mohammad and his parents were on a motorbike in a bustling neighborhood in Iran’s southwestern city of Ahwaz, when a shell fired by a terrorist group landed next to them, injuring the whole family.
Mohammad, who was only seven back then, lost his left leg and developed cardiac problems.He still lives with the pain, both physically and mentally.
Mohammad is one of thousands of Iranians who have fallen victim to terrorist attacks, mostly carried out by the MKO terror group.
The terrorist organization is responsible for the killing of 12,000 Iranians out of a total of 17,000 victims of terror attacks in the country.
Since Iran’s 1979 Islamic Revolution, the MKO has carried out a series of bombings and assassinations against Iran and fought alongside Iraqi forces in the eight-year Iraq- Iran war in the 1980s.
In 2012, the terror group was relocated from an American military base in Iraq to Albania and France, after the US and Europe delisted the group as a terrorist organization.
Ten years ago, Mohammad filed a lawsuit against the terrorist group at a French court, but to no avail.
It’s so painful to recount one’s agonies, especially when it comes to mothers seeing their children suffer; that’s why I preferred not to ask Mohammad’s mom for comment.
But she says she’s been trying to find an answer to this question through all these years; no word other than “terrorists” can describe those who deprived a child of his childhood.

Tens of Mujahedin-e Khalq former members celebrated Nowruz – a festival that marks the Persian New Year and the official beginning of spring, in Tirana,Albania.
This year – which in the Persian calendar is the year 1400 – the number of defectors has increased.
Based on the reports from inside Camp Ashraf 3 in Manza Albania, the number of dissidents against the MEK Cult regulations is on the rise and eventually separations from the group.

These people are former members of the most notorious anti-Iran terrorist group, known as the MKO or Mojahedin-e Khalq Organization. They fled the group years ago after spending two decades in the MKO under duress. They have now filed a lawsuit at an Iranian court against leaders of the terror group, namely Masoud and Maryam Rajavi.
The 42 individuals claim damages and compensation in connection with imprisonment, torture and deprivation of their rights exercised by the terror group.
The court issued the verdict, which confirms all of the charges.
The MKO has carried out a series of bombings and assassinations against Iran and fought alongside Iraqi forces in the 1980-1988 Iran-Iraq war.
Official figures in Iran report that out of 17,000 terror victims in the country, 12,000 of them were killed by the MKO terrorists.
In 2012, the terror group was relocated from an American military base in Iraq to Albania and France after the US and Europe delisted the group as a terrorist organization.
The anti-Iran cult now enjoys freedom of activity in the US and Europe and holds regular meetings with American and European officials.
The verdict now allows the plaintiffs to take their complaint to international courts, where they can hope that France and Albania would hand over the criminals to Iran.
Ask any Iranian about the MKO and you would hear the word Monafeqin, the Persian word for hypocrites. Now as Monafeqin enjoy full support by the West, former MKO members say it is unlikely that France and Albania cooperate and extradite the terrorists, but that would prove the West’s double standards on the issue of terrorism.

The plaintiffs, themselves former members of the cult-like group, allege they were captured during the Iraq-Iran war and were forced to become members of the political-militant group which advocates and fights for the overthrow of the Islamic Republic of Iran under the leadership of Maryam and Massoud Rajavi.
Forty-two individuals were involved in the proceedings and were claiming damages and compensation in connection with imprisonment and torture and alleged human rights violations.
The European Union, Canada, and the United States had previously categorised the MEK as a terrorist organisation. The designation has now been lifted.
