MKCEL_MR_05 Paris Gathering in support of Iranian Resistance, 30/6/2007.Maryam Radjavi, President-elect of the National Council of the Resistance of Iran. June 17, 1,300 heavily-armed French policemen and special forces from a dozen security and intelligence agencies, equipped with armored cars, helicopters and boats, launched the largest police operation in three decades to raid 13 offices and homes of Iranian refugees in Val-d‘Oise and Yvelines, two départements of the Parisian region.Mrs. Danielle Mitterrand, the former first lady and a prominent advocate of human rights, was the first personality to go to Auvers-sur-Oise to express support for Maryam Rajavi and Iranian refugees.Hunger strikes and sit-ins by Iranians began on the evening of June 17, the day the raids took place. At Auvers-sur-Oise alone, 170 people went on a hunger strike.Sixteen days after the raids, the Paris Appeals Court made legal history by rejecting the prosecutor‘s request for the continued detention of Mrs. Rajavi and 10 other detainees, and ordered their release.This indicated to every one that the French judiciary clearly did not view this as a terrorism case. As crackdown on Iranian Resistance in France turned into a scandal, Maryam Rajavi, seen as best hope to lead Iran to post-mullahs democracy, made a triumphal return amid joy and celebration © Maro Kouri
