Mothers Protest against MEK’s presence in Durres, Albania

A demonstration was held in Durres, the city where the Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK) is based, at the initiative of Nejat Society Albania.

The demonstration, which took place right in front of the municipality of Durres lasted for an hour. Albanian mothers who are members of Nejat Society Albania distributed flyers to the public to enlighten them about the MEK’s inhumane actions, including not allowing mothers to visit their loved ones, not even receiving letters, opposing the Red Cross in this regard.
The flyers read: “Dear people of Durres! Unfortunately, the group that has occupied part of your city has ruthlessly deprived all its members of basic human rights. One of these rights is the right to contact their families. We have a large number of letters that need to be delivered to them. Please help us in this noble and blessed work by kindly and vigilantly transferring these paper butterflies between families and their loved ones in the MEK, because family is the most precious thing in the world.”

During the rally, Nejat Society Albania also read a statement addressing the Albanian government:
“The honorable Albanian government,
We, former members of the MEK, sympathetically declare that the organization we were once members of is far from human rights, democracy, and humanity. For this reason, its presence in every country has always been accompanied by tension. The group has only been able to cooperate and accompany with a dictatorial host like Saddam Hussein.”

Nejat Society Albania warned the Albanian government and citizens that The MEK’s independent presence in Albania running a dangerous group independently from the Albanian government and isolated from the Albanian society with its own laws is certainly a terrible blow to the freedoms stipulated in Albanian laws.

The demonstrators demanded the government to treat the MEK members like all refugees in all European countries so that their trapped members enjoy the minimum freedoms of a human being today. According to them, the MEK’s independent and controlled base inside Albania is not only meaningless and annoying, but also contrary to the interests of the government and people of Albania.

Albanian TV channel SOT7 interview Aldo Sollulari and Erisa Idrizi

Albanian TV channel SOT7 interviewed the cast, director Aldo Sollulari, and actress and translator Erisa Idrizi about the documentary Mother, Love, Separation in a live broadcast.

The 50-minute live broadcast has received 2,700 views and 52 comments on the channel’s Facebook page in less than 24 hours.

https://dld.nejatngo.org/Media/Report/Sot7-Nejat-202501.mp4

About his recent interview with this strongly pro-Israel and anti-Islamic Republic TV channel, aldo Sollulari says:

In my recent interview, I made a strong call against terrorism and highlighted the potential threats posed by the MEK group. I stated that they will try to attack me, disrupt festivals, and hinder other activities, but I also emphasized that I have the full support of the Albanian state, and no one can stop me.

Furthermore, I declared that if the United States supports MEK, as MEK claims, then it is backing a dangerous group and engaging in deceitful politics. This message has already sparked significant discussion and reactions online. I have made it clear that a true democracy cannot support such groups, and I will continue my fight against terrorism without fear.

This is a strong message for all, reminding us that we must stand united against any form of terrorism and violence to protect the values of democracy and freedom.

For further information, we invite you to watch this interview, which is currently shaking the internet and igniting powerful debates.

Message from the President of the Nejat Society Albania

Greetings to all my dear compatriots and also to all the Iranian families of the members trapped in the Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK) camp in Manz.

I congratulate you on the arrival of the year 2025, I wish it to be a year full of goodness and blessings for all of you.

We also hope that the year 2025 will be the year of the connection of Iranian families with their loved ones trapped in the People’s Mujahedin Organization camp in Manez and the realization of the fundamental rights of the current members of this organization and that good and new events will take place in this year.

I take the opportunity to review some of the important activities carried out by Nejat Society Albania in 2024

The documentary film “Mother, Love, Separation”, which is the result of our meeting with several mothers grieving due to distance and separation from their children, was produced and screened this year under the direction of Aldo Sollulari, Director of the Albanian Rescue Media. Society. This very strong and influential documentary expresses our problem well and we pledged by producing this documentary that we will continue our struggle until we achieve our goal.

During this year, many television interviews were conducted on prominent Albanian channels to clarify the nature of the MEK and the demands of families for human rights.

In this regard, many articles, discussions and online conferences were also produced, in addition to the fact that members of Nejat Society Albania were very active on social networks in cyberspace.

Online programs of meetings and talks with Nejat Society inside Iran and talks with families to resolve their problems with MEK were organized, which were very well received by the suffering families.

A public rally was held in Tirana to demand human rights for the residents of the Manez camp, as well as conferences in various cities, such as Shkodër, Elbasan, along with a photo and cartoon exhibition and a documentary screening, as well as meetings and discussions with local personalities were held.

Three books have been written by three Albanian authors and one book has been translated from Persian into Albanian, which is expected to be published, presented and distributed in the new year.

I participated in a revealing conference in Italy and met and talked with Italian personalities, which caused a hysterical reaction from the MEK and false accusations, which have been proven to be the opposite in practice. Our response to the lies spread by the leaders of the MEK is that we continue our work to protect the rights of members who are under pressure but are afraid to voice their demands.

The members and officials of the Albanian Salvation Association pledge to mothers who want to see their children and families who want to connect with their loved ones, to continue their journey in the new year more than before and with double energy.

Although we know that the MEK wants to close our association and is hostile to us in every way, we also know that all this is happening because we are telling the truths that many people do not know. We raise the voice of families who have been deprived of the right to communicate with their loved ones.

We want the people imprisoned in the MEK camp in Manez to have the right to self-determination and return to normal life and real freedom.

Here I should thank all members Nejat Society Albania for their tireless efforts despite all the difficulties and shortcomings. Although these people are often threatened or accused by the leaders of the People’s Mujahedin organization, they still show the truth of their lives and the reality within this organization.

Also, on behalf of all the members of Nejat Society Albania, I would like to appreciate the efforts of Mr. Ebrahim Khodabandeh, the CEO of Nejat Society in Iran, for leading our efforts to free the members trapped in the MEK. I also want to thank all mothers and families who have supported us in these years and I hope that in the end we will all succeed.

Once again, I congratulate everyone on the new year and wish you happiness and prosperity.

Thank you and respect
