Iranians urge Albania to end MKO camp
Dozens of Iranian protesters and relatives of members of the terrorist Mujahedeen Khalq Organization (MKO) have called upon Albanian authorities to shut down a camp that hosts anti-Iran elements and make preparation for the repatriation of their family members.
On Friday, demonstrators and members of the independent civil society organization, Nejat Society, converged outside the Turkish embassy in downtown Tehran, which represents Albania’s interests in the Islamic Republic, Press TV reported.
The protesters expressed their gratitude for the latest raids by Albanian police forces on the Ashraf-3 camp in the northwest of the capital Tirana. Albanian police forces raided the camp anew on Thursday morning, more than a week after they stormed the same place over indications that a number of cyberattacks against foreign institutions were being orchestrated there.
The protesters released a communiqué during the gathering, asking Albanian authorities to shut down the camp and put the notorious ringleaders of the MKO terrorist cult on trial. The relatives of MKO members also urged the Albanian government not to allow leaders of the cult to use their loved ones as human shields against security forces.
