MKO terrorist ringleaders plan to relocate members from Albania to Canada: Report

Ringleaders of the terrorist Mujahedin-e-Khalq Organization (MKO) are reportedly making arrangements for the relocation of members from their camp in Albania to an undisclosed location in Canada.

An informed security source told Tasnim news agency on Saturday that MKO leaders have come up with the relocation plan after Albanian police authorities and the country’s Special Court on Corruption and Organized Crime introduced a series of strict restrictions on residents of the Ashraf-3 camp, west of the Albanian capital of Tirana, following the discovery of incriminating evidence.

“The MKO heads are making preparations for the gradual pullout of their members (from Albania),” the source said.

The source went on to highlight that MKO ringleaders have failed to convince French officials to agree with the relocation of a number of the terrorists to a camp in Auvers-sur-Oise commune on the northwestern outskirts of Paris.

State authorities are now ordered to prevent Maraym Rajavi from entering the European country.

The MKO terrorists have therefore employed their lobbies in the Canadian government, the source noted, adding that arrangements have been made to relocate the MKO elements with Canadian resident permits or temporary passports in the first step.

The MKO terrorists have reportedly taken the decision after realizing that their status quo in Albania is no different from what they had in Iraq.

Albanian police forces raided the Ashraf-3 camp on June 20 due to its engagement in “terror and cyberattacks” against foreign institutions. Authorities seized 150 computer devices linked to MKO's terrorist activities.

At least one person was killed and dozens of others were injured during the clashes at the camp. More than a week later, the police entered the camp again and security forces were deployed at the entrance to the camp to control all vehicles leaving the site.

Albania’s Prime Minister Edi Rama later declared that the MKO must leave the country if it wants to use Albanian soil to fight against Iran, adding that his country has no intention of being at war with Iran and “does not accept anyone who has abused our hospitality.”

The MKO has carried out numerous terrorist attacks against Iranian civilians and government officials since the victory of the Islamic Revolution in 1979. Out of the nearly 17,000 Iranians killed in terrorist attacks over the past four decades, about 12,000 have fallen victim to MKO’s brutal acts of terror, including the killing of innocent women and children.

The European Union, Canada, the United States and Japan had previously listed the MKO as a “terrorist organization.”

In 2012, the group was taken off the US list of terrorist organizations, marking Washington's decision to begin collaborating with the notorious terrorist group in plans to undermine the Islamic Republic of Iran. The EU followed suit, removing the group from its list of terrorist organizations.
