Hassan and Fatemeh lived in Iran and were not politically active. They were arrested solely for holding a funeral for Hassan&#8217;s father. Their home and property were confiscated and they were sentenced to 15 years in prison.<\/p>\n<p>On August 19, 2020, Fatemeh Mosanna was sent to Taleghani Hospital in Tehran after her multiple health issues worsened. Mrs. Muthanna was handcuffed to a hospital bed and denied access to her family. Her children traveled to the hospital but were not permitted to see her. Between January 2019 and the present day, Fatemeh has had only three meetings with her husband in Rajai Shahr Prison in Karaj.<\/p>\n<p>Fatemeh Mosanna and Hassan Sadeghi were each sentenced to 15 years in prison by Branch 26 of the Revolutionary Court by Judge Ahmadzadeh on charges of &#8220;moharebeh&#8221; or &#8220;waging war on God&#8221; for supporting the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/news\/iran-the-mek-in-albania\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">MEK<\/a>. This so-called court had ordered the confiscation of the family\u2019s property, and the Executive Headquarters of Imam\u2019s Directive confiscated Mr. Sadeghi&#8217;s place of business in February 2019.

Her three brothers were executed in the 1980s on the same charge, as was the wife of one of her brothers.<\/p>\n<p>The Sadeghi family is just one of thousands that have disintegrated as individuals have been imprisoned, tortured, and executed for supporting the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/english.mojahedin.org\/i\/primer-the-history-the-peoples-mojahedin-organization-iran\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">MEK<\/a>. Over the past four decades, the clerical regime\u2019s inhumane acts have created such an atmosphere of terror in society that no one would dare to approach the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/pmoi-mek\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">MEK<\/a> and express sympathy for them. At the same time, the regime and its lobbies outside of Iran propagate the idea that the MEK has no popular base inside Iran.<\/p>\n<p>Despite all this, the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/english.mojahedin.org\/i\/primer-the-history-the-peoples-mojahedin-organization-iran\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">MEK<\/a> and its resistance units have a clear presence in Iranian society, with daily activities demonstrating the group\u2019s widespread popular support. During mass uprisings in 2018 and 2019, Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and other leading regime officials explicitly acknowledged the role of the MEK and its resistance units in advancing and organizing the protests.<\/p>\n<p>But officials have also tried to conceal the MEK\u2019s viability from international view by pursuing a large-scale demonization campaign, in which mercenaries of the Ministry of Intelligence posed as <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/english.mojahedin.org\/i\/primer-the-history-the-peoples-mojahedin-organization-iran\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">MEK<\/a> members\u2019 relatives. The goal was to send its mercenaries to the group\u2019s Albanian headquarters under the cover of MEK families to gather information for terrorist operations against the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/english.mojahedin.org\/i\/primer-the-history-the-peoples-mojahedin-organization-iran\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">MEK<\/a>. In this regard, the &#8220;Rescue Association&#8221; affiliated with the Ministry of Intelligence sends various petitions to the Albanian authorities, signing them from the &#8220;families&#8221; of <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/pmoi-mek\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">MEK<\/a> members and requesting visas for those &#8220;families&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>A statement from the \u201cRescue Association\u201d reads in part: &#8220;As of Monday, April 20, 2020, efforts have been made to collect signatures addressed to the Government and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Albania requesting visas for families to visit their loved ones\u2026 In the second week, the representatives of the Rescue Association became widely active in 27 provinces of the country. Signatures were made from various cities in Iran and even from other countries.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The regime\u2019s benign explanation of these activities is, of course, absurd, and sheer lies. It is inconceivable that the regime feels sympathy for <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/pmoi-mek\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">MEK<\/a> family members or takes an interest in reuniting them, considering that the real family members have had their homes and property confiscated and have been sentenced to 15 years in prison simply for holding a funeral for a close relative
