In a press conference in New York organized by the Association of
Iranians in New York on May 25, Mohammad Allafchi, chair of the
association, introduced a group of witnesses who, as former PMOI
members or supporters, spent some time in the group’s bases in Iraq.
They had come from various European countries and the U.S. Speaking on
their behalf, Reza Kafi said that these individuals had come to the
press conference to testify against the allegations raised in the HRW
report.
Rabbi Daniel Zucker described the report void of any credence for
sources used and methodology and asked why HRW was promoting a wrong
policy of maintaining the PMOI on the terrorism list while thousands of
Parliamentarians across the world were calling for its removal.
