On Saturday, August 24, 2024, a conference was convened to address the atrocity crimes against humanity, specifically the massacre of political prisoners and the genocide of members of the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK) in 1988, as well as the mass executions that took place in 1981 and 1982 in Iran. The discussions underscored the pressing need for accountability and the imperative to end the impunity of those who orchestrated and carried out these crimes, under international laws and treaties.
Ms. Zohreh Shafaei addressed this conference, representing the families and survivors of the victims of the genocide in 1981, 1982, and 1988.
