Stockholm, Sweden – May 9, 2026: Supporters of the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK) rallied outside Sweden’s Parliament to protest the execution of political prisoners in Iran, including PMOI members and protesters arrested during the January 2026 uprising.
Protesters called on the Swedish government to take decisive action against the Iranian regime over its criminal executions and terrorist activities, including closing the regime’s embassy in Stockholm, which they described as a center of espionage and terrorism. They also demanded the immediate and unconditional release of all political prisoners in Iran.
Demonstrators strongly condemned the actions of the ruling clerical regime, describing the executions as a blatant violation of human rights. Participants paid tribute to the victims by holding their photos and reaffirmed their commitment to continue the struggle against the regime until its overthrow and the establishment of peace, freedom, and justice in a democratic republic.
Protesters also rejected all forms of dictatorship, whether monarchical or theocratic, emphasizing their opposition to both the rule of the Shah and the current mullah-led regime. They voiced support for the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) as a democratic alternative.
