Mrs. M. Behkish was prevented leaving the country by the notorious intelligence ministry of Iran.
Six members of Mrs. Behkish’s family were executed during 1988 massacre of the MEK/PMOI political prisoner in Iran.
Mrs Behkish was leaving the country to visit her children. She held a valid passport with an exit permission, she even was controlled and passed through passport control, but nonetheless she was stopped on the ‘gate to Fly’ and officers confiscated her passport and barred her from leaving Iran.
The agents showed her a document titled ‘General Directorate of Passports’ and summoned her to the Evan’s Revolutionary Court.
It should be noted that Mrs M. Behkish is a human rights activist. She was arrested in 2011 for collecting facts about 1988 massacre, and was sentenced to four years in prison.
