Also on Wednesday, workers of the Abadan Water and Sewerage Department held a rally in front of the office building demanding delayed paychecks and insurance premiums. British Parliamentary Session Seeks Justice on Iran\u2019s 1988 Massacre The British Committee for Iran Freedom of the UK Parliament held an online event on Thursday, September 10, calling for justice for the victims of the horrific summer 1988 massacre of over 30,000 political prisoners across Iran. Most of the victims were members and supporters of the Iranian opposition People\u2019s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI\/MEK). The event saw messages from numerous peers of various parties and British dignitaries voice their support for this initiative to hold senior officials of the mullahs\u2019 genocidal regime accountable. The keynote speaker at this event was Maryam Rajavi, President-elect of the Iranian opposition National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI). &quot;These days also mark the 32nd anniversary of the 1988 massacre of more than 30,000 political prisoners in Iran. The vast majority of the victims were members and supporters of the PMOI. The international community including Europe turned a blind eye on this horrific crime as they sought to appease the mullahs\u2019 tyranny for petty economic interests. As a result, they ignored the values and principles for which millions of Europeans and others sacrificed their lives,&quot; Madam Rajavi said.
