Although such ceremonies have been designed to make MKO forces (restricted to Camp Ashraf) busy so as not to think about the current situation, the group is following other purposes (for instance, they want to convey some messages to their colonialist masters).In the ceremonies, it was repeatedly said by MKO officials that Maryam Rajavi is the sole leader of the resistance!
Al-Qarawim, quoting Maryam Rajavi as saying”they used us as hostages”, emphasizes that:”In this interview, Rajavi criticized European countries for their approach toward the MKO and expressed regret that they don’t pay attention to MKO’s requests.”
She proposes sanctions knowing it is Iranian people who have to pay the price. She propounds the Security Council while the file is a task of the IAEA to monitor nuclear proliferation, something not yet proved about Iran. These suggestions, not new in the ears of the Western countries, are made to appease them for the final demand; please, remove “the terrorist label from the People’s Mojahedin Organization”.
Three years ago, as part of the ongoing investigation into their alleged terrorist activities by the French anti-terrorist judge Jean-Louis Bruguiere, restrictions were placed on Maryam Rajavi and sixteen of her MKO/NCRI colleagues. The restrictions were essentially that these individuals should not have contact with one another and that travel outside France was forbidden.
Head of a group labeled terrorist by the U.S. urges the West to back an internal political push against Tehran….Maryam Rajavi of the Mujahedin Khalq, which has been officially designated a terrorist group by the United States and European Union, capitalized on the escalating diplomatic confrontation with Iran to hold a rare news conference at the heavily guarded compound on the wooded banks of the Oise River…Her group remains under investigation in France for allegedly carrying out terrorist attacks in Iran and plotting against Iranian government targets in Europe…
When Masud Rajavi found out a risk from the organization’s members, looked for a woman who could save him from that abyss. A woman like “Farah Diba”, the Iranian Shah’s wife. In the meantime he fell in love with Maryam Qajar and after a period of liaison with her, divorced Firouzeh BaniSadr and introduced Maryam as the second person of the organization.
According to Le Parisien; former members of MKO-have accused MKO leaders of violating human rights and freedoms as well as torturing and endangering the lives of other people.
