Tehran, August 9, 2010
In reaction to the broad global disclosure of PMOI in regard with the massacre of political prisoners in 1988, regime’s Intelligence Ministry shamelessly defended the massacre and in a notorious site called Habilian it wrote: “the only criticism about the execution of this decree was the mercy that we showed towards some of the Monafeghin (PMOI members and supporters) and we didn’t hang them”.
The site continues: “in 1988 Monafeghin tactically repented but after we accepted the ceasefire (in Iran-Iraq war) and after Monafeghin attacked Iran these prisoners too started a riot at the prison and torched it so when, as they thought, Monafeghin would reach Tehran they can complete the invasion and topple us”.
After babbling the lie of torching the prison the site adds: “it was following this act that Imam (Khomeini) ordered that all those Monafeghin that still count themselves as Monafegh there is no sin in killing them and they must be tried and punished. It was Imam’s decisiveness and his decisive measure in regard with Monafeghin that after the trials and their rulings the Judiciary of Islamic Republic was able to cut the active arm of Monafeghin in Islamic Republic”.
