NCRI - In a conference titled, "Mullahs: Paymasters of Terrorism" at the UK Parliament on April 25, members of parliament from both houses condemned the clerical regime's terrorist threats and underlined the need for democratic change in Iran.

The conference was held on the anniversary of the assassination of Prof. Kazem Rajavi, former representative of the National Council of Resistance of Iran to the United Nations and Switezerland 16 years ago in Coppet, near Geneva.

The conference was chaired by Lord Corbett of Castle Vale and speakers included Rt. Hon. the Lord Slynn of Hadley, Rt. Hon. the Lord Waddington, QC, Rt. Hon. the Lord Archer of Sandwell, QC, Baroness Gibson of Market Rasen, Baroness Turner of Camden, Lord King of West Bromwich, David Amess and Brian Binley Conservative MPs. Dowlat Nowrouzi, NCRI representative to the UK and Hossein Abedini, member of the NCRI's Foreign Affairs Committee and a survivor of an assassination attempt also spoke to the conference.

The guest speaker to the conference was Stephane Rajavi, son of the late Kazem Rajavi. He was welcomed by Lord Corbett and praised for his efforts to obtain an international arrest warrant for mullahs' former Intelligence Minister, Ali Fallahian, who was directly responsible for Rajavi's assassination.

Following the moving display of a video clip on Kazem Rajavi's life and struggle for human rights, Stephane addressed the conference on the regime's terrorist activities and bid to eliminate its opponents. He described the fundamentalist rule in Iran as the biggest enemy of freedom and democracy in the world and stressed that the only real solution to the Iranian problem was democratic change through Iranian people and their resistance as proposed by Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, President-elect of the NCRI.

The conference was attended by members of diplomatic corps in London as well as representatives of human rights and women's rights organizations in Britain.
