Self-immolation is systematic self-harm that prepares individuals in an organization to threaten or intimidate public opinion or even the members themselves.
in 2003, there were approximately 10 self-immolations in protest of Maryam Rajavi’s arrest in Paris. The MeK has also used the threat of immolation as a negotiating tool with the JIATF, with British investigators, and with France.
