ASILA: Good news for families of the MEK hostages

The head of the Association for the Support of the Iranians Living in Albania (ASILA) spoke of the new options that are opening for the families of MEK members who are looking forward to visiting their loved ones in the group’s camp in Albania.
The newly established ASILA has the duty to support the Iranians who defects the cult of Rajavi and the families of those who are still taken as hostages in the group’s camp Ashraf 3, in the region of Durres in North of Tirana, Albania.

online meeting between Hassan Heirani, the head of ASILA, in Tirana, and a number of families of MEK members in the office of Nejat Society in Tehran

In an online meeting between Hassan Heirani, the head of ASILA, in Tirana, and a number of families of MEK members in the office of Nejat Society in Tehran, Heirani promised to use all capacities of the association to pave the way for the families to travel to Albania.
“I assure you that the way will be opened,” he said. “The cult of Rajavi cannot prevent you from visiting your loved ones in a democratic European country. They have been supported by the US and Israel so far but they have not been able to keep their own children in their cult.”

In response to the heart-broken mother of Mijad Hajalirezai who was weeping tears languishing for her son, Heirani said, “The Mujahedin cannot keep their members under pressure, mind control and intimidation forever. Half of their members have defected since the early 2000s.”
ASILA has been officially registered in the Albanian Judiciary department and its activities are closely supervised by the Albanian government.

New hopes for families of MEK defectors living in Albania

The CEO of ASILA reported of a new possibility for families of former members of the Mujahedin Khalq (MEK) to travel to Serbia and then to Kosovo in order to visit their loved ones living in Abania.
The head of the newly established Association for the Support of the Iranians Living in Albania (ASILA) spoke of the good news for families of MEK defectors who are living in Albania.

Hassan Heirani – the head of ASILA Association

“The good news is that the president of Albania Edi Rama and the president of Kosovo signed an agreement, the day before yesterday, based on which the border between the two countries will be opened.” Hassan Heirani told families of MEK members in an online meeting. “Therefore, families will be able to take a flight from Iran to Belgrade, Serbia and from there they could come to Krishna which is 250 kilometers far from Tirana so we can go there to visit them.”
According to the statute of ASILA, the association has also the capacity to establish a travel agency in order to provide visitor visa for the Iranian families who are willing to visit their loved ones in Albania.

Mujahedin Khalq as an Opposition Group

The MEK Failing to Win Support of Even Iran’s Enemies

Anne Khodabandeh, political activist, says the practice of the Mojahedin-e Khalq Organization (MKO, MEK, PMOI and NCRI) terrorist group to pay huge amounts of money to former officials to speak at their conference proves that it has no support even among countries hostile to Iran.

In an interview with FNA, Ms. Khodabandeh said, “The MKO has been forced to create audiences by paying for students and refugees to attend these conferences. These individuals have no links to Iran and no interest in the issues presented.”

Anne Khodabandeh Singleton is a British expert in cultic abuse and terrorism. She was formerly an MKO member, leaving the terrorist group in 1996.

Ann Singleton

Below is the full text of the interview:

Q: How do you interpret MKO’s practice of having former officials of different country’s deliver speeches in the terror group’s annual conferences?

A: Every year, the MKO holds a lavish and gaudy conference to advertise its leader Maryam Rajavi and its agenda. This is because the MKO exists, particularly now, as a propaganda outfit rather than as a normal opposition movement. Over the years, because it has no support among Iranians – whether inside or outside Iran – the MKO has been forced to create audiences by paying for students and refugees to attend these conferences. These individuals have no links to Iran and no interest in the issues presented. This year of course the event was held online, so this issue was not particularly prominent. However, it remains the case that the MKO is also forced to pay for a variety of political and other officials to deliver speeches which replicate the MKO’s core message of regime change against Iran. The significance of this is that Maryam Rajavi has proven incapable of winning support even among the most strident of Iran’s enemies. It does not matter whether the speakers are of the calibre and prominence of individuals like John Bolton or Rudy Giuliani or are second-rate retired officials that nobody has heard of it is not authentic genuine support, it is paid for. The real problem for Rajavi, however, is that she cannot share the stage with any other Iranian. This is partly due to the toxicity of her bloody and treacherous past, but also due to her role as the sole leader of a mind control cult. She simply cannot be seen by her own followers to be allied to other Iranian opposition groups or personalities. In subtle ways then, these rallies are an admission of Rajavi’s weaknesses and desperation rather than the magnificent advertisements she thinks they are.

Q: MKO hires lobbying groups, pays tens of thousands of dollars to the speakers at their annual meetings, and pays to have meetings with officials of different countries. How is MKO funded?

A: The MKO has gained a reputation among media and political commentators for spending huge amounts of money to stage events like their annual conference and to fund their lobbying activities among western politicians. While this has raised questions about the source of these funds, a glance at the beneficiaries of the MKO’s anti-Iran activities should give a clear enough answer to these questions – America, Europe and the UK and of course Saudi Arabia and Israel are all linked to the MKO’s anti-Iran agenda and activities. But since the MKO have apparently failed year on year to fulfil the promise of regime change, we should perhaps ask not who but why? The MKO of course was notoriously funded by Saddam Hussein for two decades up to 2003 in return for terrorist, intelligence and propaganda services. As a purely mercenary force, the MKO has currently been reduced to providing intelligence and propaganda services for its paymasters. Around 2,000 of Maryam Rajavi’s followers are imprisoned as modern slaves in a closed camp in Albania. Their role is to work in the click farm producing propaganda, misinformation and lies in relation to Iran. This is what Rajavi is paid for. But although this might appear to be the only purpose of the camp, there is a more sinister element to this mercenary group. The MKO members are mostly elderly, and many are sick and dying. But, as the saying goes, where is the best place to hide a book: a library – so it is possible to hide a small number of actively trained suicide terrorists among the 2,000 camp residents.

Q: As a Briton, do you believe attendance of ex-UK Parliament Speaker at the MKO conference would actually attract Britons and their politicians?

A: It would be an understandable mistake to believe that the flashy staging of Maryam Rajavi’s rallies and events might attract the equivalent media attention. But any actual audience for Rajavi’s shows is so small and narrowly drawn that in spite of employing a lobbying firm in America to advertise the event, it is almost certain that apart from the paid media and people whose jobs it is to keep an eye on such groups – intelligence officials and researchers – nobody else in the world paid any attention whatsoever except her own followers and supporters. As for Britain, we had a football match to watch.

Iran Interlink Weekly Digest – 305

++ To mark ‘Tree Planting Day’ in Albania, ASILA Association coordinated an activity in which several former MEK members got together with local people to plant trees. The event was warmly welcomed by the people.

++ Albanians have reacted to news that the US State Department Country Reports on Terrorism 2020: Albania, goes full out in support for the MEK “opposition group” against “Iran’s state-sponsored activity directed primarily” against the MEK, and that “On July 23 a suspected agent sponsored by Iranian authorities was declared ‘unwanted’ by the Government of Albania and subsequently expelled from the country”. Commentary points out that although in Albania, where members of the political class, judiciary, security services and media are openly for sale, this type of unfounded bias is to be expected, coming from the US the assessment has either been pushed by Israel or paid for by Saudi Arabia.

US Assessment Paid or Pushed

US Dept of State in its latest report on Albania defends the Iranian terrorist cult Mujahedeen-e-Khalq, an ex-terrorist cult which is involved in terrorism, drug and human trafficking, abductions. How can the @USStateDepartm1 expect to be taken seriously?https://t.co/KXfaL3sbdH

— Olsi Jazexhi (@OlsiJ) December 17, 2021

If the above declaration is true it means that @USEmbassyTirana is directly supporting Narges Abrishamchi & Hassan Nayeb-Agha who were caught by Albanian police trafficking drugs to Italy! @GiulioTerzi does #FreeIran mafia works with you in these smuggling operations?

++ Albanian journalist Gjergji Thanasi wrote about a romance between two former MEK members who recently married in Tirana. Thanasi says that love is a great antidote to the effects of cult membership. He likens the couple to Romeo and Juliet with Maryam Rajavi as the wicked enemy of love. But this time there is a happy ending. Thanasi reports that the Albanian police – immigration directorate – will be issuing ID cards to Iranian former MEK members who live in Albania in December. The ASILA Association, which protects the interests of these Iranians, has undertaken to help the couple with their rights.

In English:

++ Nejat Society reports that a book by Hanif Azizi, one of the evacuated children from Iraq, has been well received by Swedish readers. The book is reviewed on Good Reads where several people comment on it as ‘important’, ‘both tragic and inspiring’. Azizi was taken to Sweden as a child and was fortunate to have been placed with a non-Iranian, non-MEK foster family. This allowed him to develop as a normal citizen – although at one point in his youth he meets his mother in Iraq and is almost persuaded to join MEK. After returning to Sweden, he finds his direction and becomes a police officer. His book describes these experiences, which for the readers who review the book, is an ‘amazing story’.

++ Nejat Society comments on the MEK response to recent revelations by some of the evacuated children from Iraq, some of whom became child soldiers, and who, as adults, are beginning to speak out about their experiences. MEK typically denies their testimonies and says it is Iranian propaganda. However, in a Club House room with the topic ‘Accounts by former child soldiers of the MEK’, several of these former child soldiers met and revealed and confirmed accounts of abuse and mistreatment at the hands of MEK, including sexual abuse.

Mujahedin Khalq Organization members' families

A letter to our brother Abbas Golrizan; hostage at the MEK Tirana Camp

Abbas was a soldier in Iran-Iraq war when he was taken as a war prisoner by the Iraqi forces.
“Abbas used to write letters to us from Iraqi POW camp via the International Red Cross from time to time but when the war was over and eventually the POWs were released by the Iraqi government, Abbas did not return home.”, his sister says.

Trying to find Abbas, the Golrizan family soon found out that Abbas had been transferred to the camp of the Mujahedin Khalq Organization. Abbas has been in the MEK for over 30 years. When the group members based at Camp Ashraf and Liberty in Iraq, the Golrizan family traveled to Iraq several times to visit Abbas. However, the cult leaders didn’t allow them. His family have no access to him. Their only resort is writing letters to the human rights bodies. They also write letters to Abbas and publish them on the cyberspace in the hope that Abbas would see and read them.

Abbas Golrizan sisters

The Abbas sisters have recently written another letter to him:

“Dear brother,
How long should we endure your being away? Save yourself from the trap you have fallen into. You are our only brother. We all love you and want you to be next to us. To live by our side.
We have sent you several letters during all these years. Why didn’t you reply to any of the letters? why don’t you contact us?
Dear bro, we know that you live in the closed camp of the MEK Cult. We know that you do not have access to the outside world. You don’t have permission to call us. We are sure that if you were free, you would have called us.
Please free yourself from the cult boundaries. We want you to live your own life freely. We know that you have had hard time living within the MEK Camps. We are waiting for you to liberate yourself and return to the family.”

Iranian Romeo & Juliet Versus Maryam Rajavi The Witch

It was in Tirana that the story of Iranian Romeo & Juliet, the couple in love, was repeated, like a production from Shakespeare’s “master” pen. This time, Romeo and Juliet are not from Verona but from Iran. Fortunately, the story of the loving Iranian couple in Tirana has a “happy ending” and not a tragic end like Shakespeare’s characters!

Sanaz Bazazian and Bijan Khademi got married in Albania after separating from the Mujahedin-e Khalq

Sanaz Bazazian and Bijan Khademi are the Iranian Romeo and Juliet in Tirana. The couple were previously members of the defunct terrorist organization Mujahedin Khalq, MEK, locked up in Camp Ashraf 3 in Manez, Durres, Albania. They fell in love with each other thus violating one of the basic rules of the Rajavi cult (MEK): Love is “HARAM”! Love is forbidden because it prevents cult members from overthrowing the government of Iran! Those in the cult, however, have had forty short years, in which they have not yet overthrown the government in Tehran, even though they have declared “non grata” such a human feeling as love. Thankfully this time love triumphed over the wickedness of Maryam Rajavi, head of the Iranian cult of Manez. Sanaz and her brother Mehrdad were not intimidated by the threats of the cult commanders, nor were they seduced by the sums of up to 14,000 euros or the promises to be trafficked from Tirana to Europe, to Germany.

Sanaz Bazazian and Bijan Khademi got married in Albania after separating from the Mujahedin-e Khalq

We remind the reader that commanders of this cult were recently handcuffed by the Albanian police for human trafficking – we hope that the ‘007’ employees of the German Embassy in Tirana will take account of this trafficking of human beings destined for Germany.

Sanaz and her Romeo Bijan Khademi are finally living happily in Tirana. The couple even got married according to Islamic ceremony, a marriage performed by an Albanian imam. In December, the Albanian police (immigration directorate), despite the pressures and intrigues of the Rajavi cult, will start to provide ID cards to Iranians who live in Albania, but who have left the ranks of the Rajavi cult.

The ASILA Association, which protects the interests and rights of these Iranians, has undertaken to help provide our “Romeo and Juliet” with Albanian identity cards. Once provided with an identity card, the couple can complete the civil marriage formalities at the civil registration office in Tirana. Such action will provide the Iranian couple with all the necessary legal cover to protect themselves from any intrigue of the wicked woman Maryam Rajavi.

I am closing this post with my wish: Let Tirana inherit this Romeo and Juliet of Iran!

Child soldiers speak of abuse and violence in the MEK

Following the publication of the investigative report of the German Zeit Magazine on the life of a child soldier of the Mujahedin Khalq, Amin Golmaryami, the propaganda of the group reacted by accusing the author of the article, Luisa Hommerich and Amin Golmaryami of working for the Iranian Intelligence. The group’s propaganda claimed that Amin’s testimonies were false and launched a propaganda against him.

However, the group’s propaganda in the social media was responded by other former child soldiers who supported Amin and confirmed his testimonies. Even, Mohammad Rajavi, the son of the group’s leader Massoud Rajavi approved the evidences presented by Amin, in his Facebook account.

Furthermore, a room was formed in Club House under the topic “Accounts by former child soldiers of the Mujahedin Khalq”, on December 12th, in which several former child soldiers, including Amin Golmaryami participated. Confirming Amin’s testimonies, the room members revealed other cases of human rights violations including child abuse, harassment and forced military trainings against children in the MEK.

The host of the room was Amir Vafa Yaghmai who has several times spoken of his horrible experience as a 14-year-old soldier in the MEK’s camps. Among speakers –mostly former child soldiers and so friends of each other—Ray, 39, was one of those who stated horrible facts about his own experience of living in the MEK as a child and then as a child soldier. He said that is determined to reveal the realities about the MEK’s attitude against children and teens because Amin is his best friend who is attacked by the MEK propaganda.

Ray who finds it his absolute right to speak out on what he endured in the MEK is the son of Mujahed parents. He was in camp Ashraf Iraq until he was nine years old. In 1991, he was smuggled to Europe and then to Canada to live in the MEK bases or with foster parents. He was then returned to Iraq when he was 16.
Ray who plans to publish his autobiography, promised to speak of details on what was going on the child soldiers in the MEK. “I left the group four years ago,” he said. “I was there for 18 years. I was recruited by Sedighe Hosseini in Canada. I am an eye witness of the story of child soldiers… this is my right to tell my story to the world.”

About his childhood in the MEK he said, “It was a terrible life there. I was in Ashraf until I was eight or nine. In Camp Ashraf or in the MEK’s bases in the West, I was sexually abused by the MEK sympathizers and members. I was then given to a family that was very bad. I was constantly beaten by them. I was mentally abused.”

Ray is a mature man right now. He is proud of himself because of his bravery to expose facts about his life. “I am a strong man who can stand up to tell the true story of my past life,” he said.
Ray who is going to get married next year, believes that it is time to denounce the MEK leaders. “No one has the right to deprive me from the right to tell my story,” he said.

As the MEK propaganda has published the so-called documents about Amin Golmaryami in order to claim that he was not forced to fight for the MEK and he joined it voluntarily, Ray states that the group’s cult-like structure coerces members to admit what the leader wants. “We were under severe pressure,” he says. “We had no choice except to write and sign what they told us. In the meetings, we were dictated by Massoud Rajavi to write word by word of the commitment letters and we had to sign them and put fingerprints on them. The MEK can not use such a paper as evidence against us.”

Other speakers of the room also exposed details on what they went through under the cult-like oppressive system of the MEK. To read more about them stay tuned.

Two MEK members defected the group in Albania and got married

Sanaz Bazazian and Bijan Khademi got married in Albania after separating from the Mujahedin-e Khalq.
Sanaz and Bijan have recently defected the MEK cult in Albania and left the group’s camp. They soon decided to get married. It was forbidden in the organization for them to even think about marriage and love.

As soon as the agents of the Mujahedin became aware of their decision, they tried to dissuade Sanaz from doing so by promising to transfer her to Germany. However, Sanaz didn’t fall into their trap. The young couple celebrated their wedding on Sunday December 12 in accompany with their friends who have also walked out of the group.
Ever since the MEK members transferred to Albania, hundreds have left the organization due to its rigid cultic rules dominating the group’s affairs, one of which is forced celibacy. The MEK members have to replace family love with love for the Rajavis as cult leaders.

Swedish police recruited by the Iranian intelligence !

Hanif Aziz, 40, a Swedish police officer and the son of Mujahed parents published his autobiography on the early 2021 in Swedish language. The book was soon published on Google Play eBooks and Amazon and other online stores for $9.99. While the propaganda media of the Mujahedin Khalq (MEK) claims that the book has been written by the Iranian Intelligence (!) the world’s largest community of book lovers, Good Reads, has introduced the book. In this database, there are also eleven reviews on the book of which two are in English. The MEK-run media claim that the Iranian intelligence is abusing Swedish Police personnel! Their proof for such a claim is that, as a child, Hanif had not been interested in writing books and politics.

The Swedish title of the book is “Förortssnuten” which has been translated to English as “Suburban snout”. These unbiased reviews on the book clarify that Hanif Azizi’s book is not a book on politics. Google Reads states:
Hanif Azizi grew up on a military base in the Iraqi desert. His parents are warriors for the Iranian rebel movement Mujahedin of the People and the fight against Khomeini permeates his entire life. After his father is killed in the war, nine-year-old Hanif takes his little brother by the hand and begins an escape that eventually takes him to Sweden. He has a hard time adjusting to the new country and in his teens he gets in touch with the terrorist-branded rebel movement again. Attracted by fellowship and a possible reunion with his mother, he goes to Iraq to become a warrior in the People’s Mujahedin.

The story could have ended here, but something happens that makes life turn around. Instead, Hanif returns to Sweden – and trains as a police officer.
He is looking for a job in Rinkeby, and will soon be involved in things he never thought could happen in Sweden.
Suburban Snot is a reality-based story about escape, exclusion, radicalization and life in Swedish areas of exclusion. It is a story about friendship, cohesion and about a police force that is faced with a brutality it cannot handle.

Ksena a user on Good Reads rated the book “really liked it” and wrote:
Recommends it for: Anyone!

Shelves: painful, lovely, dramatic, biographical, nonfiction-facts, read-for-work, important, favorites
This was… a really good book. And an important one. AND! Much more than I first had anticipated.
I expected a story about a Swedish cop being a refugee originally or from such a family, and working in a Vulnerable area. And I do get that. But not only.
He grew up his first 9 years in the organization Peoples Mujahedin of Iran. But was then sent away to an uncertain future with alone. Just him and his little brother. 9 and 6 years old.
It’s interesting how he has written this book about his life. Every other chapter is about his life as a cop. And every other chapter is about how he grew up and survived just him and his little brother with various adults around them, both good and bad.
It’s both tragic and inspiring. Especially when he does finally meet his mother again as a young adult and almost joins the Mujahedin organization… It makes it so clear how young men so easily can be so easily manipulated to join extremist organizations.
Now he didn’t, he grew up mentally, returned to Sweden and ended up being a cop through various roads of life. And works in areas in Sweden where crime-rates are high and honor culture are way to common. And he is using his past to help as much he can.
It’s an inspiring story. It would have been cool to meet this man, and especially to have the teens and kids in the school I work in. I think it would have done them good.
I’m glad to have read this book. Even though the language was a bit weak here and there (hence not max-rating), over all it was an amazing story!

Another user Katerina Dashti rated it “liked it” and wrote:
“He is not welcome here (Han är inte välkommen hit). ”
This book happened to be on my to-read list due to several reasons. First, it has been much discussed in Swedish social median and book societies. Second, this is the topic that is very important for my new Swedish family and it was very interesting to read other people view about it.
This is a story of Iranian boy, who grow up in a military base in the Iraqi desert where his parents joined the Iranian rebel movement in the fight against political regim in Iran. After death of his father, Hanif and his brother start their journey for a better life that eventually takes them both to Sweden. This is a story about difficulties to adjust to the new country and how different situation can be experienced by two brothers. The story has a twist and instead of leaving for Iraq to reunion with his mother and join the People of Mujahedin, he decides to become a police officer in Sweden and work in one of the problematic areas in Rinkeby.

The story is presented in two parts. On the one hand, it is a story of a little boy who goes through really tough moments that undoubtably affected his life and views. On the other hand, it is a story of a police officer working in one of the most criminal areas in Sweden and facing loads of brutality that is hard to handle.
This is announced to be a reality-based story about escape, exclusion, radicalization and life in Sweden. Yet it turned to be more a one-sided story, that perhaps is a part of author’s getting well and accepting himself process. The part of the police officer story was really interesting as it focused on emotional aspects and challenges and possible ways (or lack of them) to deal with them. In addition, it was interesting to read about some tragical events in Sweden from the insider perspective. The biographic part of the growing up boy and information presented raised numerous questions. Thus, I would recommend to see the book more as a fiction story with some connections to the reality than as the reality based one. In other words, this book is a great example case where one should read consciously and remember about the danger of a single story.
Book is in Swedish and translation in English is not available. The language is easy and advanced language skills are not required.

Iran Interlink Weekly Digest – 304

++ In Albania, Alice Taylor for Exit News reported the arrest of two senior MEK officials for drug trafficking, people smuggling and money laundering. While MEK experts and observers responded by saying it was about time the MEK’s crimes were exposed and the perpetrators brought to justice, a parallel scandal took place as the article was expunged from the site leaving an Error 404 notice. The article reported an official source stating that the pattern of criminality by the MEK dates back to 2015. Commentators pointed out that manipulation of the media also follows the same pattern. In 2017, after two visits to Tirana, some media interviews with Anne Khodabandeh, expert in Cultic Abuse, were removed as editors and proprietors were intimidated and bribed by the MEK. Similarly, reporting on the death of Malek Sharaii was also removed after the MEK intervened. False reporting labelled Iranian visitors as ‘terrorists’. The pattern of MEK mafia-like behaviour in Albania encompasses not only the media, but includes the police, security services, judiciary and politicians from all parties. This has become so prevalent and well-known that an article in Balkans Insight by Nahzi, from BIRN, concerning America’s complaints about high-level corruption in Albania, directly mentions the MEK presence in that country as an example.

++ Gazeta Impact, Albania, published an article highlighting the difficulties faced by MEK members who try to leave or have already left the cult. The piece focuses on the Danafar family of father and two sons who requested from the MEK leadership that they be allowed to live freely in Tirana rather than continue in the closed camp in Manez. This was not a defection, simply a change to their living arrangements. They were refused. One son attempted suicide. In hospital, he was guarded 24/7 by MEK minders. The article points out that under Albanian law, inciting suicide – for example through ill treatment – is a criminal offence, as is depriving a person of their liberty. The article’s authors call for state protection of these people from Maryam Rajavi and her lieutenants. Another case is mentioned, that of Farshad, a famous singer who escaped the MEK camp. He has since been subjected to extreme psychological pressure by an MEK commander. The authors appeal to the Albanian police to protect Farshad “thus avoiding any extraordinary event such as murder, suicide or even murder disguised as suicide”. After all, the state is responsible for protecting all Iranians sheltering in Albania.

++ Nejat Society draws our attention again to the plight of MEK children who were separated from their parents by the leadership. A translation of an interview of Hanif Azizi by Linda Eliasson in folkbladet.nu describes the lucky escape he made. Azizi, who is now a policeman in Sweden, describes how he was deceptively recruited by his biological mother and the brainwashed to join the MEK fighters in Iraq. When he returned to Sweden to say goodbye to his foster family, they were able to alert him to this deception. Waiting to renew his passport allowed him time to realise he was living his dream life and he returned to Swedish society, eventually joining the police.

++ Mehdi Khoshhal in Cologne, Germany has addressed an Open Letter to Olaf Sholz, the new Chancellor of Germany. Khoshhal says that the working class and immigrants have good expectations from Sholz based on his policies. This must include guarding against the continued activities of the MEK in Germany. Khoshhal gives a brief overview of the danger that the MEK poses because of its belief in violence and human rights abuse and points out that this propensity for violence does not only affect Iran but also Europe where self-immolations were ordered. He suggests that the office of Green Party Minister Annalena Baerbock could be used to leverage human rights policies that would target the MEK’s abuses.
