Mojgan Parsai the Mojahedin's third in command (after Massoud and Maryam
Rajavi) was relieved of her duties and has since disappeared after she
reportedly approached American forces in Camp Ashraf to seek asylum in the
USA, where she had formerly been a student. Following exposure of her disappearance and fears for her safety in Camp Ashraf, the Mojahedin have tried to disguise this fact and pretend that Parsai is still active in her duties. In response to widespread concern as to her welfare, the MKO published a written statement, apparently signed by Mojgan Parsai. However, the organization has failed to show Parsai in person either on TV or among the residents of Camp Ashraf, which renders this written statement highly suspect. The simple demand of all those concerned for Mojgan Parsai's life is that she be visited by representatives of a human rights organization without the presence of the MKO so that her wellbeing can be ascertained.
