Video: Young dissident exposes human rights abuses in Iran

Shaqayeq-Azimi-27Oct-300

NCRI – Iranian dissident Shaqayeq Azimi, 22, whose parents were arrested last month in Iran by the fundamentalist regime for supporting the main Iranian opposition group People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran, PMOI (Mujahedin-e Khalq, MEK), has testified before French lawmakers about the appalling human rights situation in Iran under the tenure of the regime’s President Hassan Rouhani.

The October 27 conference in France’s National Assembly was organized by the Parliamentary Committee for a Democratic Iran (CPID). The keynote speaker at the event was Maryam Rajavi, President-elect of the Iranian Resistance.

The cross-party French lawmakers at the conference denounced Rouhani’s upcoming November 16 trip to Paris.
