A report by Didehbancenter website said during the meeting between representatives of the terrorist Mojahedin-e Khalq Organization (MKO, also known as the MEK, PMOI and NCR) and remnants of the Jundollah group, the two sides reviewed an agreement they had earlier signed under the auspices of the US spy agency, CIA, in the Pakistani city of Quetta.

The report said Abdol Rauf Rigi, an elder brother of Jundollah’s executed ringleader Abdolmalek Rigi, Jundollah’s Mufti (religious authority), Mowlavi Qassem Panchgori and Saeed Turkmen Zehi – who had hidden in Saudi Arabia after Jundollah was disbanded in several operations of the Iranian police and security forces in 2009 and 2010 – represented Jundollah in the London meeting.

Based on the agreement, the MKO is tasked with training members of Jundollah in intelligence gathering, assassination operations and designing and making bombs.

The notorious group has built a safe haven in Pakistan and it escaped to this Eastern neighbor of the Islamic Republic each time it staged a terrorist operation in Iran before it was disbanded and its leaders were arrested and executed.

In its last operation in Iran, the Pakistani-based Jundollah terrorist group claimed responsibility for December 15, 2010 attack at the Imam Hussein Mosque in Iran’s Southeastern port city of Chabahar in Sistan and Balouchestan Province where people were commemorating the martyrdom of Imam Hussein (PBUH), the third Shiite Imam.

At least 38 mourners were killed and more than 89 others, including women and children, were injured in the attack.

The Jundollah group has claimed responsibility for numerous terrorist attacks in Iran. The group has carried out mass murder, armed robbery, kidnapping, acts of sabotage and bombings. They have targeted civilians and government officials as well as all ranks of Iran’s military.

In one of the worst cases, the terrorist group killed 22 citizens and abducted 7 more in the Tasouki region on a road linking the southeastern city of Zahedan to another provincial town.

In 2007, Jundollah kidnapped 30 people in the Sistan and Balouchestan province and took them to the neighboring Pakistan.

Jundollah claimed responsibility the same year for an attack on an Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) bus in which 11 IRGC personnel were killed.

In another crime in October 2009, the Pakistan-based terrorist Jundollah group claimed responsibility for a deadly attack in the Sistan and Balouchestan province which killed 42 people among them a group of senior military commanders, including Lieutenant Commander of the IRGC Ground Force Brigadier General Nourali Shoushtari.

The MKO, an Iranian armed exile group, and the Rigi terrorist group which operates from its major base in Pakistan, both have carried out a series of bombings and assassinations in Iran.

An apprehended member of the Jundollah terrorist group confessed that the anti-Iran terrorist Mojahedin-e Khalq Organization (MKO) and his group have established organized cooperation to wage stronger and more frequent terrorist attacks against Iran.

"A member of the Jundollah grouplet has very recently declared after his arrest that the group has established organized ties with the MKO," the Persian-language website, Jahan, reported on Tuesday.

The terrorist also confessed that a number of MKO members in Pakistan pledged to work with Jundollah in a bid to provide the group with intelligence and communications backup and assistance for suicide attacks and sabotage operations inside Iran, the report added.

According to the Persian website, the MKO and Jundollah terrorist groups have agreed to stage suicide attacks on gatherings, meetings and conventions affiliated to the Islamic Republic.

After Iran’s security forces arrested Jundollah’s No 1 and 2 and its other high-ranking and influential leaders in the last few months, an increasing number of Jundollah members have started surrendering themselves to the Iranian authorities.

The Pakistani based Jundollah terrorist group, directly sponsored and supported by Washington, is responsible for several terrorist operations which have killed tens of citizens, officials and security forces in southeastern Iran.

Abdolmalek Rigi, the ringleader of the terrorist group, confessed after his arrest in late February that his group was assisted and supported by the US and disclosed that he was on route to Bishkek to meet a high-ranking US official at a nearby military base when he was arrested by Iranian security forces.

Rigi also said that he and the US official were going to discuss new terrorist attacks on Iranian territory.

Rigi on June 2 admitted receiving assistance from the MKO, but relations between the two anti-Iran terrorist groups had surfaced a long time ago when US started plans to coordinate anti-Islamic Republic moves.

In August 2009, the Jundollah terrorist group warned the Baghdad government that it would retaliate against the closure of a main camp of MKO by the Iraqi forces.

"…the Iraqi government should know that its hostile measures against the residents of Camp Ashraf who are Iranian immigrants in this city are not and will not be in the interest of the Iraqi government," Jundollah warned in a statement issued in Iraq last August.

The MKO, whose main stronghold is in Iraq, has been in the country’s Diyala province since the 1980s.

Six years after toppling Saddam Hussein’s government in 2003, the country’s security forces took control of the training base of the MKO at Camp Ashraf – about 60km (37 miles) north of Baghdad and changed the name of the military center from Camp Ashraf to the Camp of New Iraq.

The Iraqi government and parliament have both voiced strong determination for expelling the group from the country.

The MKO started assassination of the citizens and officials after the revolution in a bid to take control of the newly established Islamic Republic. It killed several of Iran’s new leaders in the early years after the revolution, including the then President, Mohammad Ali Rajayee, Prime Minister, Mohammad Javad Bahonar and the Judiciary Chief, Mohammad Hossein Beheshti who were killed in bomb attacks by MKO members in 1981.

The MKO is behind a slew of assassinations and bombings inside Iran, a number of EU parliamentarians said in a recent letter in which they slammed a British court decision to remove the MKO from the British terror list. The EU officials also added that the group has no public support within Iran because of their role in helping Saddam Hussein in the Iraqi imposed war on Iran (1980-1988).

Many of the MKO members abandoned the terrorist organization while most of those still remaining in the camp are said to be willing to quit but are under pressure and torture not to do so.

A May 2005 Human Rights Watch report accused the MKO of running prison camps in Iraq and committing human rights violations.

According to the Human Rights Watch report, the outlawed group puts defectors under torture and jail terms.

The group fled to Iraq in 1986, where it was protected by Saddam Hussein and where it helped the Iraqi dictator suppress Shiite and Kurd uprisings in the country.

The terrorist group joined Saddam’s army during the Iraqi imposed war on Iran (1980-1988) and helped Saddam and killed thousands of Iranian civilians and soldiers during the US-backed Iraqi imposed war on Iran.

Since the 2003 US invasion of Iraq, the group, which now adheres to a pro-free-market philosophy, has been strongly backed by neo-conservatives in the United States, who argue for the MKO to be taken off the US terror list.

Whatever the idea of Rigi, the guerilla fighter, he said no to the regime through the most scathing language, i.e. gun.

This open support of Rigi comes by MKO while according to its official sites, the US and England have denied any cooperation with Rigi clarifying their position toward his terrorist actions. Disregarding the truth or falsehood of their claim, the significant point is that even these superpowers show reluctant to defend Rigi’s brutal terrorist activities due to his inexpressible barbarization. However, Mojahedin are to connect themselves to Rigi and his fugitive homicides as much as possible and introduce a pathological terrorist as an opposition against the Iranian government. The western and European advocators of the organization are to answer this question: how an armed group can make its utmost efforts through lobbying to be removed from the terrorist list of the US and other countries and at the same time it supports Abdolmalik Rigi? The US has to come to answer this question too due to giving political refuge to Mojahedin and also supporting them as prisoners of war in Iraq misusing international conventions. Mojahedin support Rigi overtly at a time when no opposition dares to support him.

The western sympathizers of Mojahedin have to answer what is the relationship between decapitating and spraying a number of hostages, even if related to Iranian government, and their slogans of fighting for freedom and democracy and demanding for the ethnic and religious rights of nations. Moreover, what is the relation between this terrorist and an opposition group like Mojahedin that constantly suggests a third democratic solution to confront its challenges. Their supporting Rigi means legitimizing any brutal and wicked action like that imposed on Muslim Bosnians in the world. It is equal to defending Rigi’s fellows to follow his path. In other words, despite all their trickery and demagogic slogans on democracy, Mojahedin try to destabilize the atmosphere of Iran in different ways like inciting the civil remonstrations by the interference of their terrorist agents as well as supporting Rigi and his shameful actions for organizing and enrolling his terrorist advocators and followers. Now the EU is to be ashamed of removing the name of MKO from its terrorist list. Moreover, the act of the EU court on removing the name of MKO from terrorist list due to the point that they denounced terrorist activity or support for any terrorist group or since February 2001 is meaningless.

The way Mojahedin denounce the detention of Rigi at the time being may imply that they are likely to support Bin Laden and Al-Qaede in the future if they were put behind bars by means of the justifications made in support of Rigi and his terrorist fellows and may accuse the US and England for arresting a notorious terrorist as well. The western and even the European parliamentarians and advocators of MKO avoid supporting Rigi. It means that they do not bear the terrorist reign of a group like Rigi on Iranians despite their opposition toward the Iranian regime. It is not clear how they can ignore and justify the act of Mojahedin in supporting Rigi. Can they accept the responsibility of the atrocities caused if in the future Rigi and his supporter, Mojahedin, rise to power? The fact is that the main achievement of Rigi’s seizure was that the real aggressive and liar visage of Mojahedin claiming to be after the accomplishment of democracy and human rights was uncovered once more and those supporting MKO came to the point that they will be the first victims of the organization if Mojahedin get to a position of political or military power.

Last Tuesday, Iran announced that it has arrested Abdolmalek Rigi after intensive intelligence and security operations.

The following is the detailed transcript of Rigi’s confession, stated in Farsi, as broadcasted on Press TV.

"After Obama was elected, the Americans contacted us and they met me in Pakistan.They met us after clashes with my group around March 17 in (the southeastern city of) Zahedan, and he (the US operative) said that Americans had requested a meeting."

"I said we didn’t have any time for a meeting and if we do help them they should promise to give us aid. They said they would cooperate with us and will give me military equipment, arms and machine guns. They also promised to give us a base along the border with Afghanistan next to Iran."

"They asked to meet me and we said where should we meet you and he said in Dubai. We sent someone to Dubai and we told a person to ask a place for myself in Afghanistan from the area near the operations and they complied that they would sort out the problem for us and they will find Mr. Rigi a base and guarantee his own security in Afghanistan or in any of the countries adjacent to Iran so that he can carry on his operations.

"They told me that in Kyrgyzstan they have a base called Manas near Bishkek, and that a high-ranking person was coming to meet me and that if such high-ranking people come to the United Arab Emirates, they may be observed by intelligence people but in a place like Bishkek this high-ranking American person could come and we could reach an agreement on making personal contacts. But after the last major operation we took part in, they said that they wanted to meet with us.

"The Americans said Iran was going its own way and they said our problem at the present is Iran… not al-Qaeda and not the Taliban, but the main problem is Iran. We don’t have a military plan against Iran. Attacking Iran is very difficult for us (the US). The CIA is very particular about you and is prepared to do anything for you because our government has reached the conclusion that there was nothing Americans could do about Iran and only I could take care of the operations for them.

"One of the CIA officers said that it was too difficult for us to attack Iran militarily, but we plan to give aid and support to all anti-Iran groups that have the capability to wage war and create difficulty for the Iranian (Islamic) system. They reached the conclusion that your organization has the power to create difficulties for the Islamic Republic and they are prepared to give you training and/or any assistance that you would require, in terms of telecommunications security and procedures as well as other support, the Americans said they would be willing to provide it at an extensive level."

Iran’s security forces arrested Rigi on Tuesday by bringing down his plane over the Iranian airspace, as he was onboard a flight from the United Arab Emirates to Kyrgyzstan.

According to Iran’s intelligence minister, the leader of Jundallah terrorist group was at a US base in Afghanistan 24 hours before his capture, in possession of a US-issued, forged Afghan passport. He had also met with NATO military chief in Afghanistan in April 2008 and also had links with some EU member states, as well as visiting such countries.

It was only a few weeks ago that reports of a meeting between the heads of the Rigi group and terrorist MKO was disclosed; they met in an area in Pakistan and held talks to make a joint front and to cooperate in line with making a terrorist group under the name of the Armed Forces Organization of Mojahedin. It was said that provision of weaponry and exchange of information have been among agreed issues in this meeting prior to finalizing the decision to make a joint front.

Just after Rigi’s arrest, MKO-run website tried to ridicule Iran’s potentiality that led to the arrest of Rigi whom the organization referred to as the leader of People’s Resistance Movement of Iran (Jundollah). It claims that it was Pakistan that arrested Rigi and surrendered him to Iranian forces a week earlier. It also warned Iranian regime of any use of pressure and torture against the arrested.

The two groups having a bloody history of terrorist operations against Iranian people, MKO’s support of Rigi’s group comes at a time when it tries to acquit itself of terrorist charges that has put it on the US and other countries’ list of terror. It makes no difference whether a terrorist group directly engages in terrorist activities or glorifies and supports the other’s deeds.

The post Rigi’s arrest disheartened MKO appeared first on Nejat Society.

Zahedan Prosecutor Mohammad Marzieh also told Fars news agency that the notorious terrorist was arrested early Tuesday in a pre-planned operation.
"Rigi’s arrest was eventually made through a series of security measures taken for a long period of time. He is now in Iran and will be handed to security and judicial officials," he said.

The Jundallah group has claimed responsibility for numerous terrorist attacks in Iran. The group has carried out mass murder, armed robbery, kidnapping, acts of sabotage and bombings. They have targeted civilians and government officials, as well as all ranks of Iran’s military.
In their latest attack, which occurred on October 18, more than 40 Iranians — among them 15 members of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC), including top commanders, in addition to several tribal elders — lost their lives when Jundallah terrorists carried out an operation in the border region of Pishin, located in Iran’s southeastern province of Sistan-Baluchestan.

Citing US and Pakistani intelligence sources, the news group of an American televison network, ABC, reported in 2007 that the terrorist group "has been secretly encouraged and advised by American officials" to destabilize the government of Iran.

Investigative journalist Seymour Hersh revealed in another report in July 2008 that US Congressional leaders had secretly agreed to former President George W. Bush’s USD 400 million funding request, which gave the US a free hand in arming and funding terrorist groups such as Jundallah militants.
The Pakistan-based terrorist organization denies having any link to Washington but Rigi’s brother, arrested earlier and now in Iran’s custody, confirmed in an interview with Press TV that the Jundallah leader had, in fact, established links with the US administration.

Abdolhamid revealed that a go-between, named Amanollh-Khan Rigi, put the terrorist group in connect with the US administration, which had promised the anti-Iran terrorist group a safe haven in Pakistan.

"His name is Amanollah-Khan Rigi. He is my father’s cousin. He was a royalist during the Shah’s regime," Abdulhamid told Press TV.
"After the [1979] Revolution in Iran, he left the country via Pakistan and sought asylum in the United States."

Abdulhamid said the Americans had asked Amanollah-Khan to forge a link between the US and Jundallah. "The Americans asked him [Amanollah-Khan] to introduce them to [Abdolmalek] Rigi in Pakistan and that’s how link was established."

He also claimed to have visited the US Embassy in Pakistan to seek more US cooperation with the terrorist group.
"The most important issue that I raised was Jundallah’s security in Pakistan," he said.

"I told the Americans that we needed support from the media, newspapers, radios and satellite channels to get our message across to the Baluch around the world," he said.
According to Abdolhamid, the Pakistani government was well aware of the whereabouts of the Jundallah terror group.

"It is impossible to believe that Pakistan is unaware of Jundallah’s presence on its soil," he said. "Pakistan is a perfect haven for Jundallah."
