NCRI – Protests in the Hague marked mullahs’ Foreign Minister’s visit to the Netherlands on Thursday.
The Dutch-Iranian Youth Organization and Association of Iranian Academics in the Netherlands were protesting outside the building where Mottaki, the Mullahs’ Foreign Minister, and his Dutch counterpart met in The Hague.
Demonstrators were calling the Dutch judicial authorities to arrest him and hand him over to an international court to be tried for his direct role in terrorism and murders of Iranian dissidents.
Mottaki was directly involved in planning and implementing the abduction of Mr. Abol-Hassan Mojtahedzadeh, an Iranian Resistance activist, in Turkey in 1988 and the attempt on the lives of Mohammad Mohaddessin, Chairman of the Foreign Affairs Committee of the National Council of Resistance of Iran, and Hossein Abedini, an NCRI Foreign Affairs Committee member, in 1990 in Istanbul.
In his capacity as the then-Foreign Ministry’s Director General of Western European Affairs, Mottaki played a major role in the assassination of Dr. Abdurrahman Qassemlou, leader of the Kurdistan Democratic Party of Iran, and two other of his colleagues in 1989 in Vienna by facilitating the terrorists’ safe passage from the scene and helping them evade justice in that country.
