Fattahian confirms that they were killed by the group leaders after they criticized them for the conflicts between their words and acts.<\/p>\n<p>Actually, actions carry the stronger message. Fattahian recounts:<br \/>\n\u201cThese two people were in my unit. Mohammad Ashayer criticized Maryam\u2019s words about free future Iran saying that the MEK itself was not engaged in democracy and freedom for its own members and acted undemocratically inside its base. He would ask how Maryam Rajavi could guarantee freedom of Iranians after the overthrow of the Islamic Republic.\u201d<br \/>\nAccording to Fattahian, \u201cAziz Asadi criticized the MEK for lack of freedom of speech and expression\u201d. He would also question the function of the MEK\u2019s so-called National Liberation Army.<br \/>\nBoth men were tried in a court under the command of two female commanders, Maryam Akbari and another woman who Fattahian does not remember her name. \u201cThe trial lasted for several hours,\u201d Fattahian writes. \u201cThe two men were insulted, humiliated and accused of being the agents of the Iranian intelligence ministry during the trial.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>However, Ashayer and Asadi did not shrink from their opinion. Thus, Assadollah Mosana, the MEK\u2019s notorious torturer entered the scene. Fattahian was an eyewitness of the scene:<br \/>\n\u201cAssadollah Mosana along with some of other prison guards and torturers suddenly attacked them. They beat them to death and then they took them out of the hall, and we never saw them again.\u201d<br \/>\nFattahian tried to find a track of his disappeared comrades, but he could not find anything until two years later. \u201cKamran Fallahi and I were patrolling around Camp Ashraf,\u201d he says. \u201cWe went to the camp\u2019s cemetery and ran into a group of journalists. A large number of photos of casualties of the MEK\u2019s terrorist operators and executed members of the group were hanging everywhere. Kamran and I were shocked to see the photos of Mohammad Ashayer and Aziz Asadi among them. Pari Bakhshai, the high commander of the camp was telling the journalists that they were victims of the Islamic Republic!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ghafoor Fattahian and Kamran Fallahi went to Pari Bakhshai and asked her, \u201cWhen were they killed? They were in our unit\u201d Bakhshai answered, \u201cGood job to tell us about them. We will remove their pictures,\u201d But, eventually Ghafoor and Kamran were kicked out of the cemetery.<br \/>\nThis was not the end of the story. Ghafoor and Kamran were summoned immediately after they got back to their unit. \u201cNever talk about what you saw today! It is a red line!\u201d They were told.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mohammad Ashayer and Aziz Asadi were disappeared after they criticized the MEK leaders.
