Protesters Are Trained By MEK, Local Official Says

Abbas Abdollahi, director general of the Islamic Propaganda Organization of Semnan province, told Mehr state news agency: “The events that have taken place on the streets show that the work of trained mercenaries is led by the hypocrites (the regime’s term for smearing the MEK) and the counter-revolutionaries. Because the burning of ambulances, the desire to tear down the flag, setting fire to things, etc. are the work of trained people. This is street warfare. It is very clear that those who are on the street and vandalize public property… their concern is overthrowing the system.”

In recent days, many state officials have lied about vandalism against religious places and the Quoran to mobilize the increasingly thin ranks of their own supporters. The regime is also widely using ambulances to deploy troops or transport detained protesters.

Unrest in front of Evin Prison, Tehran

According to MEK sources from Tehran, following the widespread arrest of citizens and youths in the nationwide uprising of recent days in the capital, on Monday, September 26, the families of those arrested gathered in front of the Evin prison in order to hear from their loved ones. Consequently, security forces lined up in front of the families and refused to respond to the concerned relatives of those apprehended.

Following hours-long waiting, the families of the detainees started to protest and chanted “Shame on you! Shame on you!” but the prison guards responded to these cries with tear gas and tried to disperse the people.

According to the MEK, the number of people arrested by the regime’s police, intelligence, and special units has exceeded 8,000.
