Both the compound, Ashraf 3, and the MEK have been targets of extensive disinformation campaigns by the Iranian regime. The same court ordered a similar case for another news publication, Der Spiegel, in March 2019. That publication, too, published an article that conveyed similar allegations against the MEK in general, and Ashraf-3 in Albania in particular. Both Der Spiegel and FAZ provided a platform for individuals who presented themselves as former MEK members and portrayed themselves as having fled their Albanian residence in the wake of mistreatment at the hands of MEK leadership in Albania. But the NCRI\u2019s legal challenge identified the originators of these allegations as operatives for, or collaborators with, Iran\u2019s Ministry of Intelligence and Security (MOIS). In the past two years, similar allegations from the same sources have been published in Britain\u2019s Channel 4, Al-Jazeera English, BBC, and The New York Times. This has been an organized campaign by the Iranian regime to demonize and discredit the MEK BUT WHY? While the Iranian regime\u2019s constantly been engaging in spreading misinformation about the Iranian opposition, these efforts took on a new scale as popular protests began emerging across Iran at the end of 2017, in which were chanted MEK slogans such as \u201cdeath to the dictator.\u201d These slogans gained popular support in Iran despite the regime\u2019s disinformation campaign against MEK &amp; NCRI. The Regime Change message of the 2018 uprising reflected the MEK\u2019s platform, while its spontaneous spread reflected a high level of organization that is only possible in the presence of a well-developed network of MEK activists. This is what the regime fears most and why it goes to great lengths to distract people from joining the resistance. In January 2018, the regime\u2019s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei publicly accused the MEK of planning and facilitating the 2018 uprising. That in turn set the stage for another nationwide protest in November 2019, which once again showcased MEK leadership and explicit calls for regime change. Having no way out of crises, the Iranian regime sees no other way out of its current dilemma than engaging in a reprehensible campaign of demonization of the MEK. The goals are: - Discrediting a viable alternative to the ruling theocracy that has succeeded both in organizing protests within Iran, and in disrupting the Iranian regime\u2019s terrorist activities and destructive policies. - Preparing the ground for terrorist attacks justified by such propaganda. The flip side of this coin is the forced televised confessions of prisoners to discredit the resistance against the regime. The Associated Press in a report published on June 25, 2020, wrote: \u201cstate television has broadcast the suspected coerced confessions of at least 355 people over the last decade as a means to both suppress dissent and frighten activists in the Islamic Republic on behalf of security services.\u201d In a nutshell, terrified of the enthusiasm exhibited by young people towards the MEK and the cause of regime change, and International support for the resistance, the regime desperately needs to either eliminate or isolate the democratic resistance movement, by fake news and demonizing campaign. #Iran #MEK #PMOI #NCRI #Rajavi #Mojahedin #Mujahedeen #Ashraf-3 #Ashraf #Albania Read More: https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/IranNCR\/ https:\/\/twitter.com\/iran_policy Subscribe to NCRI weekly newsletter t.ly\/MybJ\"><\/div><\/div><div class=\"lL\" style=\"max-width:100%;width:853px;margin:5px;\"><\/div><\/p>\n<p>The NCRI&#8217;s Security and Counterterrorism Committee, in a statement on August 10, 2020, revealed: &#8220;After the Government of Albania expelled Mohammad Ali Arz Peyma and Ahmad Hosseini Elsat, two more clerical regime&#8217;s diplomat-terrorists, in January 2020, and exerted greater vigilance regarding the activities of the mullahs&#8217; embassy, the regime&#8217;s Ministry of Intelligence and Security (MOIS) and the terrorist Quds Forces are carrying out their activities and communications with their agents indirectly from Tehran, the Balkan and Western European countries.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Massoud Khodabandeh and his wife Anne Singleton, the notorious London-based MOIS agents, are two who are in daily contact with several MOIS local agents in Albania, including Gjergji Thanasi and Olsi Jazexhi. Thanasi and Jazexhi are in direct contact with MEK defectors recruited by the MOIS, including Hassan Heyrani. The local operatives hang out at a caf\u00e9 in the Fresco area of Tirana, where they coordinate their espionage activities. Heyrani, who runs the Caf\u00e9, also pays the rent and other costs involved. The MOIS is organizing its mercenaries through two defectors, Hassan Heyrani and Gholamreza Shekari, who are posing as &#8220;former members&#8221; or &#8220;separated members&#8221; of the MEK. Another operative, Ehsan Bidi, who was exposed by the NCRI&#8217;s Security and Counterterrorism Committee, has been placed under house arrest in a closed camp since August 2019. During this period, he received money and resources through other regime agents,&#8221; the statement added.<\/p>\n<p>Another example of how the Iranian regime tries to obtain information about the MEK by sending its agents, disguised as MEK supporters, is the case of two MOIS agents, Ahmad Reza Mohammadi Doostdar and Majid Ghorbani, arrested on the charge of terrorism and espionage.<\/p>\n<p>In a press release on January 15, 2020, the United States Justice Department <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.justice.gov\/opa\/pr\/two-individuals-sentenced-connection-work-behalf-iran\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">announced<\/a>: &#8220;Ahmadreza Mohammadi-Doostdar, 39, a dual U.S.-Iranian citizen, and Majid Ghorbani, 60, an Iranian citizen and resident of California, have been sentenced to prison terms of 38 months and 30 months, respectively, for their criminal convictions relating to their conduct conducting surveillance of and collecting identifying information about American citizens and U.S. nationals who are members of the group <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/english.mojahedin.org\/i\/primer-the-history-the-peoples-mojahedin-organization-iran\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK)<\/a>.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In another case, the MOIS sent Meysam Panahi to Germany to spy on the Iranian Resistance. Panahi was expelled by MEK in 2012 in Camp Liberty, Iraq. In July 2016, a court in Germany sentenced Panahi to two years in prison for espionage on the MEK and NCRI.<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/stats.sender.net\/forms\/dGYVLa\/view\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"Weekly-Signe-up-logo-1\" class=\"size-full wp-image-219239 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Weekly-Signe-up-logo-1.png\" alt=\"Weekly-Signe-up-logo-1\" width=\"250\" height=\"83\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Since the 1990s, MOIS agents have been trying to gather information about the Iranian Resistance, by posing as the Resistance&#8217;s supporters or opponents of the regime.

To coordinate the connections between terrorists, assassins, and spies of the regime, Shahsavandi set up an intelligence branch under the cover of a bookstore in Hamburg, Germany. The MOIS funded this bookstore.<\/li>\n<li>In 1994 Jamshid Abedini, an MOIS agent, was arrested in Sweden on the charges of infiltrating and gathering information for the regime&#8217;s assassination plots against the MEK&#8217;s officials in Sweden. He had posed as an MEK supporter, thus gaining some of the MEK supporters&#8217; trust, and obtained some information for the regime&#8217;s terror plots. Sweden expelled three of the regime&#8217;s diplomat terrorists in February 2000 in connection to this case.<\/li>\n<li>In another case in Turkey, the MOIS hired a man named Reza Masoumi in 1994. Masoumi was able to gain the trust of the MEK&#8217;s supporters and the Iranian refugees in Turkey by introducing himself as an opponent of the regime and a supporter of the MEK. He approached MEK officials, including Ms. Zahra Rajabi, who had been traveling to Turkey to help Iranian refugees. He provided the MOIS with the information that led to the assassination of Ms. Rajabi and MEK supporter Ali Moradi in 1996 in Turkey.<\/li>\n<li>In January 2001, the MOIS tasked another agent, Hamid Khorsand, with infiltrating the MEK supporters&#8217; ranks in Germany. He received at least 12,500 German marks twice from the regime&#8217;s Ministry of Intelligence for this mission. An intelligence official affiliated with the Iranian consulate in Berlin initially led Khorsand&#8217;s activities.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>In November 2020, Assdolah Assadi will face prosecution in Belgium for conspiracy to commit terrorist murder. It is vitally important not only that he be held accountable for the incident, but also that his trial serves as a warning to the regime about the future consequences it will face for such political violence.<\/p>\n<p>The Belgian court should impose the maximum legal penalty on Iran\u2019s terrorist diplomat. And beyond that, the nations of Europe should punish the regime with new sanctions related to terrorism and the systematic violation of human rights.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>State terrorism and using traitors or those expelled from the Resistance&rsquo;s ranks are methods of the Iranian regime to pursue its terrorism and silence the voice of any opposition abroad.
