Defected MKO members stage demos against terrorist group

TEHRAN,July 10(MNA) – A number of defected members of the Mojahedin Khalq Organization (MKO) have staged demonstrations against the leader of the terrorist group, Maryam Rajavi, in Germany and France over the past two weeks. One of the demonstrators told that the demonstrations had been held to protest against the deceptive methods of the leader of the terrorist group to win the West’s support. The MKO began a campaign of assassinations and bombings in Iran shortly after the victory of the Islamic Revolution in 1979. The group moved to Iraq in the early 1980s and fought Iran from there until the United States invaded the country in March 2003. About 3,100 MEK members live in Camp Liberty, a former U.S. military base near Baghdad airport. The Iraqi government wants the group’s members out of the country.
