Assadi&#8217;s detention was illegal, the proceedings were illegal, and that the court is basically illegitimate to address this issue. So the verdict In our opinion, is void and we are following the issue intensively, and we hope that we will be able to end this issue in a way that is more correct. This whole process is illegal and Assadi should return to the country freely,&#8221; Khatibzadeh said. Despite his bogus claims, Assadi was caught red-handed while attempting to bomb the opposition rally in 2018 in Paris. The prosecutors underlined that based on the evidence, this terrorist plot was coordinated at the top of the regime.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Iran: Coronavirus Disaster in 522 Cities in Iran Takes the Lives of 234,600<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-236609\" title=\"iran-coronavirus-update-20032021-2\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/iran-coronavirus-update-20032021-2.jpg\" alt=\"iran-coronavirus-update-20032021-2\" width=\"800\" height=\"456\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/iran-coronavirus-update-20032021-2.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/iran-coronavirus-update-20032021-2-300x171.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/iran-coronavirus-update-20032021-2-768x438.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/iran-coronavirus-update-20032021-2-150x86.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/iran-coronavirus-update-20032021-2-696x397.jpg 696w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The\u00a0<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/english.mojahedin.org\/i\/primer-the-history-the-peoples-mojahedin-organization-iran\" rel=\"noopener\">People\u2019s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI\/MEK)<\/a>\u00a0announced on Saturday, March 20, 2021, that the Coronavirus death toll in 522 cities across Iran had exceeded 234,600.
