The website of NCRI writes that the PMOI said in a statement from April 1, that Iranian security forces arrests and tortures families of members of the People's Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK) for meeting their relatives in Ahraf City, Iraq.
The PMOI says that in recent months, there have been widespread arrests of families of PMOI members who had visited their relatives in Iraq and they call on the UN Secretary General, the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights and other international organizations to take immediate measures.
Zahra Assadpour, 50, and her daughter Fatemeh, 22, were arrested February 5 on Sassan Square, Karaj. They were respectively taken to Evinprison and Gohardashtprison, and beaten and tortured.
They were not allowed any visits by their family for five weeks. Despite payment of a heavy bail the regime continues holding them in prison.
According to the statement, the harassment of families of the PMOI members are a result of failing attempts to increase the pressure on the members of the PMOI who are residing in Ashraf city.
