TEHRAN, July 29 (Xinhua) -- A Iranian criminal court said it plans to bring 104 members of the Mujahedin-e Khalq Organization (MKO) to trial, the Mizan news agency affiliated to the Iranian judiciary reported Saturday.
The trial of the 104 MKO members, including the group's leader Maryam Rajavi, will go in absentia, according to a public announcement issued by the Branch 1 of Tehran's Criminal Court in major Iranian newspapers.
Iran designates MKO as a terrorist organization, accusing it of having assassinated tens of thousands of Iranian citizens. The group is currently based in Albania. ■
