40 members of terrorist Mujahedin e-Khalq organization who had been moved to Camp Liberty have evacuated Iraq through Baghdad airport heading to other countries.Udai al-Khadran, governor of Iraqi Khalis town, said in an interview: “A high ranking MKO commander who has just defected from the group, has revealed that many MKO members are demanding to leave Iraq and go to other countries including Iran.
The escape of more than a score of MKO’s/MEK/PMOI members from its military base, Camp Ashraf, while being transferred to a temporary transit center near Baghdad has faced the group with another grave crisis among many other that have already challenged it. Even more overwhelming, majority of them are old, experienced veterans and ranking members of the group..
Leader of Mustaqbal party of Iraqi Kurdistan said: “MKO/MEK/PMOI is a terrorist group which is not only the enemy of Iranian nation but also a hostile to Iraqi people and especially the Kurds. Furthermore, they have had a direct impact on suppression of our people in Saddam’s time.”..
Following the relocation of the MKO members in Temporary Transit Location (Camp Liberty), a new wave of defection started among the cult forces.Six dissociated members of the group who were kept as hostages by the leaders could manage to run away, last week.The first group of escapees who left TTL last week included four people: Hassan Yazdani,….
Alireza Khamoushi, the ninth MKO member to flee the group in just the last one month, had been imprisoned and tortured before fleeing the camp.The defected members describe improper psychological conditions and strict cult rules and restrictions as their main reason for fleeing the terrorist group.

Therefore, the plan to relocate the group in a third country is only meant for propaganda purposes…Israel is seeking to relocate the MKO members to the Republic of Azerbaijan. ..
The MKO leaders know that the resettlement of TTL residents in third countries cannot be done immediately and requires a long-term process. So the only way to keep members behind the bars of the cult and to conceal cult-like practices of the organization is to go under the UN flag neutralizing the rule of Iraqi government in maintaining its sovereignty over TTL…
Three other members of the terrorist Mojahedin Khalq Organization aka MKO/MEK/PMOI fled from Camp Liberty [Temporary Transit Location], a former U.S. military base near the Baghdad International Airport.It had been decided that 3200 MKO members living in Camp New Iraq be relocated to Camp Liberty [TTL] in eight groups, each consisting of 400 members.
So far European and North American countries have been reluctant to offer to take in the mostly elderly and sick former fighters. They should remember that it is their governments and other Western political pundits who have gleaned the greatest benefit from these victims. The MEK/MKO/PMOI have been exploited relentlessly in the interminable political wrangling against Iran..
Notwithstanding the ongoing challenges with the Government of Iraq, MKO aka MEK/PMOI has been the subject of many serious challenges and disputes for its defiance of legal and social laws in European countries and particularly in France, where its second headquarters are stationed…
