An American delegation has met and talked with the seven Camp Ashraf hostages held in Iraqi prison

NCRI- According to a report from inside the Iranian regime which was originally sent from Iraq, it was reported to the mullahs’ Supreme Council of National Security that an American delegation has met and talked to the 7 Camp Ashraf hostages on three occasions in the prison of Maliki’s “Golden Division” near Baghdad airport.

Subsequently, when a UN delegation planned to meet with the hostages in this place, Iraqi police under the new order of Maliki denied presence of hostages at the Airport prison.

Since the Iraqi government in violation of non-refoulement principle intends to extradite asylum seekers and persons of concern under Fourth Geneva Convention to the Iranian regime, the United States and United Nations have a duty to immediately prevent it.

The US and UN responsibility is undeniable and thus the issue should be raised immediately in the UN Security Council. The Iraqi government should be compelled to carry out its international obligation and prevented from extraditing the hostages to the Iranian regime and release them.

According to the above report, Khamenei has reiterated to the regime’s Supreme Security Council that the massacre of PMOI members in Ashraf and Liberty and extradition of the hostages are conditions of support for Maliki for his third term as prime minister of Iraq.
