Swedish SVT broadcasts Children of Camp Ashraf on the anniv. of Maryam Rajavi’s arrest

The documentary film “Children of Camp Ashraf” will be broadcast on Swedish TV channel SVT. Amir Yaghmai, a former child soldier of the Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK), announced this news on X social network. The documentary will be shown in Swedish with English subtitles on Monday, June 17, at 10 pm local time. “Branen Fran Camp Ashraf” is the Swedish title of the film.

The documentary Children of Camp Ashraf directed by Sara Moin is about the lives of four Swedish citizens who were the children of the MEK. Under the order of Masoud Rajavi, they were smuggled to Sweden where they were handed over to the families of the MEK sympathizers, and suffered serious traumas.

Amir Yaghmai is one of these four people who was later smuggled to Iraq as a child soldier and joined the army of the MEK. Atefeh Sebdani, Hanif Bali and Parvin Hosseinnia are three other children of Mujahed parents who are now in their forties, successful Swedish citizens who narrate the traumas of life under the control of MEK in Sara Moin’s documentary.
On May 30th, Amir Yaghmai, who always raises awareness about the truth of the MEK and his personal experiences from childhood to youth in the group on social networks, wrote about the broadcast of the documentary in his account on X:

Hi Friends
Good news!
Just wanted to let you know that the documentary “Children of Camp Ashraf” will be broadcast on SVT1 on Monday 17th June at 22:00 (after the main evening news) but will be available on SVT Play from Sunday 16th June.

It is worth to mention that the broadcast date of the documentary coincides with the anniversary of the arrest of Maryam Rajavi by the French police in 2003. The arrest of Maryam Rajavi, under the order of French Judiciary on charges of terrorism and money laundering, led to the initiation of a series of self-immolations by members of the MEK in protest against her arrest.

These self-immolations were carried out under the instructions of the leaders of the MEK cult. Among the people who set themselves on fire were two child soldiers: Neda Hassani and Hamid Orafa. Neda Hassani died due to the sever injuries and Hamid Orafa was disabled for the rest of his life. Have the filmmakers deliberately chosen the date for the first release of the film to the general public after screening in festivals?

Iran

On the eve of the 13th session of the trial court of the leaders of the MEK

A compromise between witnesses, plaintiffs, researchers, prosecutor’s representative and plaintiffs’ lawyers
After twelve sessions of the trial of the leaders of the Mujaheidn-e Khalq (MEK) in Criminal Court No. 1 of Tehran, the thirteenth session of the court will be held soon. During the previous sessions, indictments were presented for the MEK as a legal entity and 114 defendants, all of whom are high-ranking members of the organization. Statements of some eyewitnesses, families of victims of MEK-led terrorist attacks and former members of the organization were heard.
In the twelfth session, the intellectual foundations of the MEK and in particular Masoud Rajavi were discussed. In this regard, the plaintiffs’ lawyer, Meisam Hakimzadeh Hosseini, cited some documents, books and opinions of researchers. In fact, the previous session was an opportunity to investigate the real identity and main ideology of the MEK, which ultimately led to the violent and sectarian activities of the group.

Whatever the intellectual foundations of the MEK have been, today it has created a record for the group, from which a 700-page indictment has been issued, as well as a huge number of plaintiffs, some of whom are always present at court hearings.
Perhaps the testimony of eyewitnesses of the violence of the MEK is more fruitful than historical evidence and ideological foundations, for the court in order to reach the truth and issue fair verdicts. Because the number of eyewitnesses who have witnessed the crimes of MEK in different areas is so large that it can facilitate the clarification of the dimensions of the case.

One of the reactions of the MEK to the holding of the courts in Iran is to purify their past. For example, producing various contents, the agents of the group try to deny its relationship with the Iraqi dictatorship. The cooperation of the MEK with Saddam Hussein and his Baath regime is described as “collaboration with the enemy at war with the homeland” and in many countries of the world the sentence issued for this treason is the most severe punishment in the country’s judiciary because it “endangers national security”. In this regard, in addition to the videos, photos and documents that were revealed after the overthrow of Saddam Hussein’s regime, there are also many eyewitnesses.

The presence of Ali Ekrami, a former member of the MEK, in the previous session of the court is a positive step in enriching the documents and evidence about the betrayal of the group to its homeland (Iran), which was at war with the aggressor (Iraq) for eight years. Ali Ekrami, as one of the officials of the forign relations department of MEK, is not only an informed source, but also a witness to many crimes of the Cult of Rajavi, which is undeniable.

The number of former members of the MEK who are willing to testify about the violence of this terrorist cult in court is not low. These people have a great capacity to improve the process of awareness and enlightenment in the court. While Safaedin Tabarayan rightly spoke about the role of the MEKin suppressing the Iraqi Shia intifada uprising, there are many former members of the group who took part in the operations against Iraqi Kurds and Shiits. These people have written dozens of books and articles about that era, which can be presented in court sessions. Maryam Rajavi’s famous statement in the Morvarid Kurd killing operation came from this evidence: “Take the Kurds under your tanks! You’re your bullets for Iranian revolutionary guards!”

Sedaghat, the religious expert in the court said that the MEK believe in pragmatism followed by Machiavellianism. In his opinion, the MEK sees Islam as a cover for its belief in Machiavel. Many former members of the Cult of Rajavi citing memories and evidence of prayer, fasting, hijab and Islamic rituals that were compulsory in the group. The MEK leaders prove that Islam is the means in the hands of Masoud and Maryam Rajavi to justify the ends. Therefore, the research, scientific and historical explanations of the researchers and lawyers in the court should be supported by the statements of eyewitnesses and the testimonies of the plaintiffs, to aid the heads of the court reach a fair judgment.

The cult of Rajavi

Former MEK child soldier recounts the bitter story of his aunt

Maryam Banoo Torabi is a member of the Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK), which is known mostly through her brothers. She is the younger sister of Ghorban Ali Torabi and Nade Ali Torabi. Ghorban Ali was a dissident member of the People’s Mujahideen who was killed under the torture of the commanders of the organization, and Nade Ali is a member of the Nejat Society who has been appealing the blood of his brother and the release of his sisters from the bars of the Cult of Rajavi. But today, Maryam Banoo’s heart-breaking story is narrated through her nephew, Mohammad Reza Torabi.

Mohammad Reza Torabi, the son of Gurban Ali Torabi, the former child soldier of the MEK learned about the death of his father under the torture by his Mujahed comrades only after he left the group in 2017 and stepped into the free world. His life story has been recently welcomed by his audience on social networks.

In a thread of detailed tweets, Mohammad Reza Torabi tries to write an honest account of his personal experience with the MEK including his childhood, his father and mother during their involvement in the MEK cult. He writes about the killing of his father during the interrogation, imprisonment and torture within Rajavi’s cult in the years 1994 and 1995 in the headquarters of the group, in Iraq.

In the meantime, he made another revelation in response to a user’s question whether his aunts are still in the group’s headquarters in Albania:
Yes, unfortunately they still are. The story of one of my aunts is very heart-breaking. In fact, my younger aunt. During the interrogations of the MEK in Ashraf in 1995, she was also tortured a lot. And especially after hearing the news of my father’s death, she suffered from mental illness and trauma. During the time when I was in the MEK, my older aunt was always careful not to tell me anything about my father. She was not even allowed to talk to me about my father, that is, her elder brother. Curse the Mujahedin! My aunt was very kind and loving. She loved me much more than Zahra.”
Stating “Zahra”, Mohammad Reza Torabi means his mother. Zahra Seraj is his mother, who called him a traitor because of his revelations about the MEK’s violent and cult-like nature. Masoumeh Torabi is the older aunt of Mohammad Reza, who, along with Zahra Seraj, has repeated the lies of the MEK about the death of his father during all the years of Mohammad Reza’s presence in the group.

Mohammad Reza’s words about his younger aunt, Maryam Banoo, were previously said by another former member of the MEK. Maryam Sanjabi, one of the activists of Nejat Society, who herself experienced torture and interrogations in 1994 and 1995 in the MEK’s prison, writes about Maryam Banoo:
“During the months that I was in the MEK’s prisons located in Camp Ashraf, I continuously heard the screams of the tortured and imprisoned men and women, and I witnessed the double torture of Maryam Torabi. This lady was imprisoned in a solitary room for months. At night, she moaned, screamed and screamed until the morning because of the terrible pressure they put on her.”

Sanjabi continues her comments about Torabi family: “The evil leaders of the Cult of Rajavi have managed to force Masoumeh Torabi and Zahra Seraj to remain silent. But because of the violent acts that they committed against this oppressed lady (Maryam), She was psychologically damaged and became psychotic in the same year. Humiliation, insults and abuses of the cult officials against Maryam banoo Torabi did not end even after the end of the projects. She was constantly under control in the cult and was unable to do anything due to his physical disability caused by torture, but they forced her to do activities.”

Although Mohammad Reza Torabi has no connection with Nejat Society and probably with Maryam Sanjabi, the common point of these two people’s testimonies about Maryam Banoo Torabi is the suffering of an innocent woman who lost all her youth, prosperity, fertility and vitality in the clutches of the fences of the destructive cult of Masoud and Maryam Rajavi. There are many such testimonies that confirm each other from different aspects.

The story of Maryam Banoo Torabi is just one of thousands of unpleasant stories of people who were in some way connected with the MEK cult. With the help of media and social networks, these testimonies are multiplying and confirming each other. Awareness about the nature of the MEK is increasing day by day, and the testimonies and evidence are getting richer over time in order to be able to be presented in international forums.

Mujahedin Khalq; A proxy force

MEK’s American paid speakers, according to former child soldier

Mohammadreza Torabi, a former child soldier of the Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK), once again confirmed the previous documents and narratives of Western journalists about the paid speakers of the group by publishing a document of the payment of a large amount of money to an American military general in exchange for a speech on behalf of the MEK.

The testimony of Mohammad Reza Torabi, as a former member of the Cult of Rajavi, who spent 18 years of his adolescence and youth in the cult, is one of the few types of evidence about the financial relations of the MEK from inside the group, considering that based on his testimonies, he was a translator for the political department of the MEK for 7 years.

In a post that Torabi published on May 19th, 2024, on his account on X platform, he announced that due to the support of some Western politicians for the MEK, he will post some of his content on social networks in English. At the same time, he pointed out that “no former western official supports the MEK without receiving money”.

Torabi then published a picture of the payment receipt to one of the American speakers at the meeting of the MEK, named General James Jones, and wrote: “These are just a few examples of paying money to Western figures to speak at the MEK meetings. American General James Jones was paid 92,000 pounds for ten minutes of speech and support for Rajavi and Camp Ashraf.”

The receipt was issued on May 13, 2013 by an organization called “Iranian Community Association” and based on that, an amount of 92,549 pounds was deposited into the bank account of a company called “Speaker Partners” which is responsible for providing speakers. In the explanation section of this receipt, it is stated that the above amount is allocated to General James Jones to speak at “an international event on Iran with particular focus on humanitarian legal and political solution to the plight of residents of Camp Ashraf/ Liberty”, which was scheduled to be held on June 22nd, 2013.

Human Rights Abuse in the MEK

Hamid Orafa and Yaser Akbari Nasab, two suicides on two ends of the MEK

Hamid Orafa and Yaser Akbari Nasab were two of child soldiers of the Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK). Teenagers who were unintentionally involved in the MEK due to the way of thinking of their Mujahed parents. The shared bitter fate of both of these teenagers was self-immolation. Amir Yaghmai, former child soldier of the MEK has recently discussed the cases of Hamid and Yaser who were his friends.

Yaser Akbari Nasab was the son of Morteza Akbari Nasab, one of the high-ranking members of the MEK. He lost his mother in the MEK’s cross-border military operation against Iran, Forough Javidan. Yasser was smuggled to Europe in 1991 along with his brother Musa, his sister Fatemeh and near a thousand of children of the MEK.

A few years later, the 17-year-old Yaser and the 14-year-old Musa were again trafficked to Camp Ashraf in Iraq as child soldiers. Organizational pressures and restrictions, military and ideological training made Yasser complain against the group’s ruling system. Finally, in 2006, he was burned in a fire that it is not known whether he lit it himself or someone lit it for him. Many consider his death a suicide.

Amir Yaghmai published a photo of Yaser and Musa on his account on the X social network and wrote:
“Two brothers, former and close friends of mine who joined Ashraf and the MEK from Germany. Yasser Akbari on the left, poured gasoline on himself and burned himself and died in Ashraf. Then the organization called him a traitor. His brother Musa returned back to Germany after many years and became mentally ill. These were the organization’s own children.”

Yaser & Musa Akbarinasab

Hamid Orafa was also one of the children of the organization. With his disfigured face after self-immolation, he is still a child of the organization and is used in the organization’s propaganda activities. The MEK considers him a “burning torch” that “burned the curtain of the reactionary-colonial conspiracy of June 17th and reduced it to ashes.” He was one of the 23 supporters and members MEK who set themselves on fire in June 2003 in protest against the arrest of Maryam Rajavi by the French police.

Hamid orafa

In an interview attributed to Hamid Orafa published on the website of the MEK in 2013, he admits that in the years after the self-immolation, he has undergone numerous surgeries, and of course and he literally speaks of the depth of the collective and peer pressure in the MEK cult that led him to get brainwashed.

So, It is not surprising that he seems happy and satisfied with 56 surgeries on his face: “Until today, there have been 56 surgeries, which of course I must say here that I don’t think that any human being, even Mujahid, can endure this number of surgeries. But what was it that made this situation bearable for me? The answer is the Mujahedin’s crowd. There is a group of Mujaheds who made this bearable for me and helped me. Brothers and sisters who did everything for me. It was because of this that I was able to perform this number of operations in 10 years.”
In the caption of a photo of Hamid Arafa and two other people who self-immolated during the arrest of Maryam Rajavi, Amir Yaghmai writes:

“Hamid Arafa, the middle one in the photo, his parents defected the MEK and were called traitors by the group, but their son Hamid wanted to go to Iraq after he was manipulated by the MEK. His parents did not agree and said that they will complain to the court. During the arrest of Maryam Rajavi in 2003, the MEK encouraged Hamid to set himself on fire, thus taking revenge on his parents.”

The child soldiers of the MEK have been at risk of suicide both inside the group such as Alan Mohammadi, Yaser Akbari Nasab and Faizeh Akbarian who committed suicide to protest Maryam Rajavi’s despotic ruling, and outside the MEK such as Hamid Orafa and Neda Hassani who were brainwashed to commit suicide to protest against the arrest of their cult leader, Maryam Rajavi.

The child soldiers have always been at risk of being victimized. The Rajavi cult uses all these sufferings to increase the number of its so-called martyrs and fuel its propaganda machine. There are still a large number of child soldiers who are still taken as hostages inside the group’s camp in Manez, Albania. They are mostly in their forties now. The international human rights bodies must take action to give them the opportunity to choose for their life with their own free will.

Albania

Aldo Solullari to introduce Nejat Society to Albanians

Aldo Solullari, Media manager of Nejat Society Albania addressed the audience in a video conference. As an Albanian activist of Nejat Society’s office in Albania, he introduced the society, its mission and its activities. Read his recent on-line speech which was in Albanian language, published on Nejat Albania’s You Tube account:

Hello friends and well-wishers of the Albanian Salvation Association, better known as the Nejat Albania Association.

I am happy to convey through this virtual conference the administrative approach of this association, which operates in the framework of the integration of foreign communities in Albania, particularly the Iranian community who have left the Mek camp located near the city of Durres in Manez.

According to an international institutional agreement that has been made possible under the title of humanitarian shelter status, this community has come to Albania to take shelter in our country, after being rebel in their country, trusting their future for decades under a severe surveillance at the mujahedin camp.

In their contracts witnessed by themselves, the former members have found that the union with the MEK organization has been a propaganda to imply the right of integration in the European countries and in our country where they are welcome based on an agreement.

These members of that organization found that joining that organization brought later consequences that they suffer to this day, not being able to communicate with their family members in their country, not having access to social networks to communicate through technological devices. Even their basic rights are violated. They cannot even communicate with those members of their family who may be inside that camp. These and others are outside any standard of living, claiming that they came with the desire to integrate.

There was a need to create an association that operates in the framework of the integration of this community who have left that camp for the real purpose of moving to our country, which is precisely the integration and advancement of a life style.

Once they came to us, they were first given their first cell phone to communicate with their families, and even every support and legal access was made possible to be within every normative legal provision, within the rules of the Republic of Albania.

They are involved in different professions of private businesses, working in different sectors and creating personal capital for their expenses.

In this way, they have managed to get to know the Albanian people better by calling them their brothers and sisters and even creating their own families in our country, and having the status of parents after so many years of being lost without access to their own parents.

The renewal of residence permits was made possible by the assistance of Nejat personnel, where it was done in a transparent manner in cooperation with Albanian institutions, helping these members to be free to interact in our community.

The democratic principles of MEK were already proved to be false, and now we hope that the testimonies of these former members of that organization will be a voice of communication for the other members there, and to understand that they have the support of the Albanian institutions and the big family of the Nejat association for their every need.

Every day, working together to create a new path and road in their life path, paving every hole that the mujahedin organization has left in their memories.

With continuous social and cultural activities and fairs to share their bitter memories, we try to give them strength to move forward and to tell them that this horror film with the title “MEK” has ended, and that now in our country they can live as free and honest citizens, embracing the law and even claiming the right to citizenship.

With respect

The cult of Rajavi

Children Recruited and Exploited by the MEK

A large number of children are being trafficked by terrorist and violent extremist groups around the world. The International bodies may believe that this is a new phenomenon but the truth is that the Mujahedin_e Khalq (MEK) began using children in its conflicts at least four decades ago. Amir Yaghmai is one of those children. He reveals how he and about three hundred of MEK’s children were brainwashed and recruited by MEK commanders.

Amir Yaghmai, who was under the military training of the MEK at Camp Ashraf in Iraq from the age of 14 to 20, shares a photo of the MEK’s headquarters in Auver sur d’Oise in the suburbs of Paris. In the photo, a group of teenagers can be seen who were separated from their mujahid parents in Camp Ashraf a few years ago and were smuggled to Europe. Amir writes in the caption of this post on his X account:
“A photo of “Auver”, the main base of Mujahideen in the suburbs of Paris in 1998. The underage children in this photo were all sent to Iraq and Camp Ashraf. They were brought from Germany during the school holidays to be brainwashed and recruited by the Mujahideen. I’m in the middle with a red shirt.”

The exploiting of children in armed conflicts is forbidden by international law. According to international law “child” is defined as “every human being below the age of eighteen years.”

Today, terrorist organizations like DAESH and Boko Haram recruit and train child soldiers who could be exploited as couriers, spies, fighters and even suicide bombers. Political, economic problems and insecurity give safe havens for these groups for setting up their training camps, especially in border regions.

The MEK is the leading extremist group that recruited child soldiers as early as the 1990s. At the time it was located in Iraq near Iranian border and tried to smuggle the children of Mujahed parents from western countries back to Iraq. Around one thousand children had been earlier smuggled to Europe from Iraq in 1990, after the first Gulf War.

Massoud Rajavi, the leaders of the group had ordered their parents to divorce. The separation of children from their parents was the next step and the last step was to recruit those children as soldiers of the MEK’s army.

The children were given to MEK sympathizer families in Europe or North America or they were kept in team houses of the group in European cities. The group officials in the west were charged with manipulating these children preparing them for the day they will get back to Iraq to were military uniforms.

Sharing another photo Amir Yaghmai introduces Fereshteh Yeganeh, a high-ranking member of the MEK as the official who was in charge
“Fereshte Yaganeh, the person in the first row on the left, was responsible for brainwashing the youth in the organization’s office in Paris by showing the Mojahedin’s army films and making the children emotional, as well as long talks to convince them. When I asked for separation in Iraq, this same person threatened to send me and my mother to prison in Iran.”

United Nations Interregional Crime and Justice Research Institute (UNICRI) has published a Report on Children and Counter-Terrorism. The report examines the position of children in international law as perpetrators and victims of terrorism. It also explores radicalisation, de-radicalisation and counter-radicalisation by analysing counter-terrorism laws and practices of two case study countries. Finally, the report provides a number of generally applicable recommendations that will allow governments to strengthen their capacity to integrate international child rights standards into domestic counter-terrorism frameworks.

Fereshteh Yeganeh

Children of the MEK are adults who might be still taken as hostages in the group’s camp in Albania, or they might have been killed in the group’s violent conflicts. The lucky ones might have managed to release themselves from the physical and mental bars of the MEK. There has been no de-radicalisation system to help the last category get back to the society. They just did it by themselves.

Amir Yaghmai, Atefeh Sebdani, Ray Torabi, Amin Golmaryami, Parwin Hossiennia, Zhina Hosseinnezhad and many other former child soldiers of the MEK are European citizens who have endured a traumatized childhood. They have been courageous enough to share their heart-breaking stories but their stories must be heard and must be considered as evidence to stop the MEK leaders, Massoud and Maryam Rajavi, from captivating those hundreds of victims inside Manez camp in Albania.

Missions of Nejat Society

CEO of Nejat Society pens letter to the ICRC

International Committee of the Red Cross

Greetings and Regards,

On behalf of the Nejat Society in Iran, I wish to congratulate the World Red Cross and Red Crescent Day on Wednesday, May8, 2024.
Nejat Society represents the families of members of the Mojahedin-e Khalq Organization (MEK, MKO) who are trapped in a remote and isolated camp in Albania. These families have not heard from their loved ones for many years, which is because the leaders of the cult do not allow their members to communicate with the outside world, particularly family and friends.
According to those who managed to escape from this camp, the most basic human rights of the members are violated and the European Convention on Human Rights, which Albania is also a signatory, is systematically violated.

In the mandate & mission of the Red Cross we read:
It (ICRC) takes action in response to emergencies and promotes respect for international humanitarian law and its implementation in national law.
The ICRC also endeavours to prevent suffering by promoting and strengthening humanitarian law and universal humanitarian principles.
. . . the ICRC, with the support of the entire Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, has constantly urged governments to adapt international humanitarian law to changing circumstances, . . .
According to this mandate, when the basic human rights of the members of the MEK are continuously violated inside the camp of this organization in Albania and the members are exposed to systematic brainwashing, the World Red Cross ought to urge the Albanian government to implement international and European humanitarian laws in MEK camp in Albania.
Last year, I submitted the families’ requests to connect with their loved ones, along with many documents to the ICRC office in Tehran, and they promised to handle the case and cooperate, but so far no answer has been received.

On behalf of the grieving and awaiting families, I request you to fulfill the main task of the International Committee of the Red Cross and provide the possibility of communication between the families and the missing members inside the MEK camp in Albania through the Albanian government.

The families have absolutely no information about the situation in the camp and the conditions of their loved ones. They do not know if their loved ones are still alive and live inside the camp. No one knows whether they have deceased or have been transferred to another country. There is no information about the physical and mental health of these people. Are they imprisoned and curfewed? These people are considered missing and disapeared from the point of view of their families. According to the information received from the former members, the relations inside the camp have the status of modern slavery, due to the mind control that is applied.

I also request you to remind the responsibility of the government of Albania to comply with the human rights convention of the Council of Europe and ask this government to firstly remove the ban on giving visas to Iranian families of members of the MEK to travel to Albania and secondly open the doors of the camp in Albania to families and the free world so that families can visit their loved ones along with representatives of the Red Cross and be sure of their physical and mental health.
