Student Activists<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Iranian authorities have increased their crackdown on student protesters with prison terms and restrictions on their peaceful activities, <a href=\"https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/2018\/07\/20\/iran-events-11\/\">Human Rights<\/a> Watch said today.\u00a0 After authorities repressed the protests that broke out in December 2017 and January 2018, Intelligence Ministry authorities have arrested at least 150 students and courts have sentenced 17 to prison terms.<\/p>\n<p>As of mid-July 2018, reliable sources reported that revolutionary courts had sentenced at least eight student protesters from universities in Tehran and Tabriz to prison sentences of up to eight years and banned some of them from membership in political parties or participating in media, including social media, for two years.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cInstead of enabling a safe environment for peaceful activism, Iranian authorities have gone back to their favorite response: cracking down on peaceful dissent,\u201d said Sarah Leah Whitson, Middle East director at Human Rights Watch. \u201cWhile encouraging students to participate in public discourse, the authorities in practice prosecute them for peaceful assembly.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-5597\"

VP<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Alejo Vidal-Quadras, former vice-president of the European Parliament and current president of the Brussels-based International Committee In Search of Justice (ISJ), wrote: \u201cThe EU\u2019s eagerness to further unconditional engagements with Iran seems to have only made Europe more vulnerable to state-sponsored terrorism, as Iran has used its ease of access to the European Union countries for espionage and terror plots that jeopardize the lives of European citizens. The EU needs to wake up. We should follow up the brave actions of our intelligence and police services with firm and decisive political action. We could respond by downgrading our diplomatic relations and expelling agents that are linked to the Iranian Intelligence Ministry in order to prevent more terrorist attacks on European soil.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>We should also remember that this type of action is not new. The past 30 years are littered with assassinations or attacks on Iranian dissidents by the Regime on European soil, including:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>1989 \u2013 Kurdish leader Abdul Rahman Ghassemlou in Vienna<\/li>\n<li>1990 \u2013 Dr Kazem Rajavi, NCRI representative in Geneva and former Iranian ambassador in the UN<\/li>\n<li>1997 \u2013 Berlin Mykonos restaurant assassinations of four Iranian-Kurdish dissidents<\/li>\n<li>1998 \u2013 Mohammad Hossein Naqdi, NCRI envoy and former diplomat murdered in Rome<\/li>\n<li>2018 \u2013 The Netherlands expel two Iranian diplomats for involvement in the murders of Iranian dissidents in 2017<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-5598\" src=\"https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/EU-Should-Cut-Diplomatic-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"Iran Events\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" onerror=\"this.src='https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/wp-content\/themes\/hello-elementor\/images\/broken-image-placeholder.gif';this.srcset='https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/wp-content\/themes\/hello-elementor\/images\/broken-image-placeholder.gif';\" srcset=\"https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/EU-Should-Cut-Diplomatic-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/EU-Should-Cut-Diplomatic.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/ncri-statements\/terrorism-fundamentalism\/25073-iran-regime-s-intelligence-to-infiltrate-the-opposition-focusing-on-pmoi-and-ncri\">Iran Regime\u2019s Intelligence to Infiltrate the Opposition, Focusing on PMOI and NCRI<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution (BfV) in the Nordrhein-Westfalen province in Germany, in its 2017 report released this week, emphasized on the focus of Iran\u2019s Ministry of Intelligence (MOIS) against the opposition, in particular the People\u2019s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI\/MEK) and the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI,) and also its attempt to infiltrate the Iranian opposition in Germany.
