MEK supporters in Ottawa demanded the trial of the mullahs’ regime leaders for crimes against humanity, in an international court.
The Iranian community in Ottawa emphasized the Iranian people seeking a democratic republic and rejecting any kind of dictatorship, be it the mullahs or a return to that of Shah’s regime.
They asked the international community to recognize the right of self-defense of the Iranian people against the religious dictatorship.
In addition, the Iranian Resistance supporters in Ottawa urged the international community to support the Iranian Revolution and take a firm stance against the oppressive regime of the mullahs.
