Press Release:
British Parliamentary Committee for Iran Freedom
MPs Call For
Deployment of UN Blue Helmet Forces In Camp Liberty
MPs call for an
independent probe into the massacre at Camp Ashraf and the release of seven
hostages
Call for deployment
of UN Blue Helmet forces in Camp Liberty and guaranteeing protection and
security of the Iranian dissidents in Iraq
In a cross party parliamentary conference organised by the
British Parliamentary Committee for Iran Freedom, MPs from both Houses of
Parliament condemned the massacre of 1 September at Camp Ashraf by Iraqi armed
forces under Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki's command at the behest of the
Iranian regime. In the attacks, 52 residents were slaughtered and seven were
taken hostage, including six women.
The speakers in the Westminster conference strongly
condemned the appalling Ashraf massacre and said the Iraqi government must be
held to account. MPs and renowned human rights lawyers and personalities asked
for urgent release of the seven hostages by Iraq while calling on the UN to
station a permanent Blue Helmet team at Camp Liberty. The conference further
called for the provision of urgent protective equipment at Camp Liberty,
including double-layered roofs for trailers and the return of T-walls and
concrete bunkers.
Speakers included David Amess MP, Alan Meale MP, Dowlat
Nowrouzi UK Representative of NCRI, Lord Maginnis of Drumglass, Tahar Boumedra,
former head of UNAMI's human rights section, Margaret Owen, OBE, barrister and
renowned human rights lawyer, Malcolm Fowler, member of Human Rights Committee
in Law Society, Mr Lars Rise, former Norwegian MP who has visited Camp Ashraf.
Baroness O'Loan, Member of Joint Human Rights Committee of
the British Parliament, Brian Binley MP, Matthew Offord MP and Steven McCabe
MP, also sent messages to the conference.
Sir Alan Meale, MP stated “The international community must
come together and prosecute the perpetrators of these crimes and bring this
case to the International criminal court in The Hague.”
Lord Maginnis emphasised “We have allowed UNAMI (United
Nations Assistance Mission in Iraq) to downplay the truth of what occurred
during the past 5 massacres and worryingly, the diplomatic missions in Iraq
rely on UNAMI and its reports. This hides the crimes of Prime Minister Maleki.”
Mr David Amess, Conservative Member of Parliament and
Chairman of the BPCIF stated “We want action. We must insist on the immediate
release of the seven hostages, the stationing of UN blue helmets and a US
monitoring team at Camp Liberty 24-7. Iran is about to lose what it describes
as its 35th state, Syria, and that is why it wants to get rid of its opposition
in Iraq. We must isolate this regime and sanctions must be brought to ensure
freedom for the people of Iran.”
Dr. Tahar Boumedra former UN official said: “The reality of
Camp Ashraf is that no one could penetrate Camp Ashraf without the express
permission of the Iraqi government, army and police. This attack was ordered by
the government of Iraq. We will unfortunately witness another attack in Camp
Liberty unless the international community acts to stop these atrocious crimes
against humanity.’’
Mr Brian Binley, Conservative MP said in a message to the
conference that “I have been in correspondence with the Secretary-General and
will continue to do so and urge the UN to station a permanent Blue Helmet force
in Camp Liberty.”
Mr Lars Rise, former Member of the Norwegian Parliament
said “This was a serious and clear crime against humanity and the Iraqi regime
is the main suspect. We should not allow the suspects of a crime to investigate
the crime.”
Ms. Dowlat Nowrouzi, the UK Representative of the National
Council of Resistance of Iran said “Based on the principle of non-refoulement
the Iraqi government cannot extradite the 7 hostages to Iran. All residents are
protected persons under the Fourth Geneva Convention. The UN must station its
blue helmet forces at Camp Liberty. The FCO, the US and the UN should put
pressure on the Iraqi government to provide safety and security to the Camp
Liberty. This includes the return of 17,500 T-walls to camp Liberty which was
previously removed by the Iraqi government and other security measures.”
Baroness O'Loan, stated that “I call on Prime Minister
al-Maliki to do all he can to immediately secure the release of the hostages. I
call on our government, the US government and the UN to ensure a proper
investigation takes place into this massacre.”
Malcolm Fowler of the Law Society said “I am here on behalf
of 160,000 members of the Law Society to strongly condemn the mass execution of
52 residents of Camp Ashraf and we call on the Foreign Office to take robust
action to protect these civilians”.
Margaret Owen, OBE stated ‘The perpetrators and the Iraqis
and the Iranians must be held accountable. The 7 hostages must be released
immediately.’’
