Along with these incidents, there have been prolonged misinformation campaigns by the regime against the (PMOI / MEK Iran), as well as foiled terrorist attacks on Ashraf-3. Several Iranian diplomats have been told to leave Albania.

The Interior Ministry of Albania took the responsibility for expelling Ehsan Bidi, an Iranian regime agent on October 17th. He was arrested and taken to a detention center and will not be released until another country is prepared to take him. Bidi was caught spying for the Iranian regime on the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI / MEK Iran), in Albania.

Mullah’s regime tries to keep themselves in power by demonizing the (PMOI / MEK Iran), through persistent campaigns. One of the worst things it has been doing is getting people into Albania who pretends to be relatives of the MEK, when in fact they are terrorists.

Ashraf-3 in Albania resident, Vahid Reza Dolatshahi, is a member of the Iranian resistance which fights for freedom and democracy in Iran, led by the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI / MEK Iran). He reveals how over the last 4 decades the regime in Iran has tried to eliminate the MEK and in total 120,000 of its supporters have lost their lives for what they believe.

This is not the first agent that has been sent by the Iranian regime to spy on the opposition and it is unlikely to be the last. The regime’s brazen activity in Europe, especially in Albania where a large number of members of the (PMOI / MEK Iran) reside, is shocking, but not surprising.

A few days ago, authorities in Albania announced that an agent of the Iranian regime’s Ministry of Intelligence and Security (MOIS) was arrested for spying on members of the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI / MEK Iran) – the main opposition to the Iranian regime.

Throughout the decades of rule by the theocratic regime, it hasn’t stopped demonizing what the MEK stands for and that is freedom and democracy in Iran and not oppression and terrorism so often used by the regime to terrorize its citizens.

The Iranian regime continues to pursue its demonization campaign against the main Iranian opposition organization, the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), and the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI / MEK), by releasing books that do not speak the truth.

Even though there is no direct evidence of what words have been used by the regime to discredit the MEK, it is clear that more recently there has been growing support for the NCRI and (PMOI / MEK Iran), as a democratic alternative to the Mullah’s despotic regime.

Twitter has erased about 130 Twitter accounts that seemed to have originated from somewhere in Iran. They contained information allegedly that was trying to intervene into tweets about the coming presidential election debates in the U.S. Twitter realized that the owners of the Twitter accounts have knowingly been using the social media platform to peddle the regime’s beliefs, much of which is disinformation.

Finally, on February 27, 2012, the MEK took the unprecedented step of filing a writ of mandamus, a court order which compelled the State Department to execute its duties under the law.

Monday, September 28, marked the anniversary of the People’s Mojahedin Organization  (PMOI / MEK Iran) and National Council of Resistance of Iran’s (NCRI) 2012 removal from the U.S. Foreign Terrorist Organization (FTO) list.

Throughout the last 40 years, state-run publishers printed 526 volumes which concentrated on the negative portrayal of the MEK. Also, many films, TV series, and documentaries were aired concentrating on the MEK as the enemy of the people.

Recent uprisings in Iran clearly indicate the clerical regime’s failure to dismantle the organized Resistance units, supporters of the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI / MEK Iran), but because it is afraid of another uprising, it is starting to use more repressive tactics.

In their letter, the (PMOI / MEK Iran) members informed the High Commissioner that the Iranian regime uses the BBC Persian Service to put pressure on the opposition and their families.

In a letter to the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, 123 members of the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI / MEK Iran), also former prisoners of war, drew attention to their situation.

The propaganda and fake accounts on various social media, targeting the MEK and the leaders of the Iranian opposition, confirm the MEK’s long-held assertion that the Iranian regime considers the organization as an existential threat and sees the destruction of the MEK as the only way to maintain its claim to power.

A report in the New York Times recently revealed that hackers have been assembling information about the opposition in Iran. They have been doing this by hacking into computers and cell phones, as well as apps such as Telegram.

The government of the United States, such as the governments of Europe who support you and, again, that’s, to me, a testimony to the MEK’s effectiveness and to the MEK’s power.
