110 British lawmakers from both houses call on UN Secretary-General to have Iraqi armed forces evacuate Camp Liberty vicinity, urging UN to guarantee Ashraf residents’ rights respected

The letter is as follows:
Dear Secretary General,
We, parliamentarians from the UK House of Commons and House of Lords, who have been closely following the developments at Camp Ashraf, express our deep concern regarding the relocation of the first group of 400 residents of Camp Ashraf to Camp Liberty.
A group of 400 residents showed utmost flexibility and prepared themselves to move to Camp Liberty on 17 February. This was at a time when many basic necessities at the new camp were clearly lacking. This gesture of goodwill by these residents was responded to by the Iraqi government ordering its police at the new camp to be offensive and hostile.
The Associated Press reported: “Iraqi soldiers searched the exiles for almost an entire day before they left Ashraf, and they were searched again Saturday before they were allowed into Liberty. Exiles were barred from bringing some of their heirlooms, including photographs, microwave ovens, satellite dishes for Internet access and, in one case, a pair of therapeutic socks.”
Iraqi forces in the presence of UN monitors prevented the residents from transferring medication and medical supplies, a generator, office equipment including chairs, tables and photocopiers, a water heater and hygiene products. This occurred even though UN monitors were present and Martin Kobler in a letter dated 15 February stated that residents would be allowed to take their medical supplies. Further, in the MOU signed with the government it was stated that residents would be able to take their moveable property with them to Camp Liberty.
The extensive and unnecessary presence of police inside Camp Liberty, particularly those with ties to the Iranian regime such as Sadeq Mohammad Kazem, who led the massacre of 47 residents in 2009 and 2011, indicates that Camp Liberty will be a prison. This is further evidenced by the fact that residents were required to be searched and fingerprints taken before entering the camp, as if they were prisoners of war which the residents rightfully refused.
Camp Liberty, contrary to UNAMI’s 31 January statement, does not conform to international standards from the point of view of infrastructure. Upon arrival residents found that there was no electricity or water and its hygienic services were filthy and unusable.
With Mrs Rajavi having convinced the residents to accept this risky transfer, the current conditions at the camp are totally unacceptable. We expect the United Nations, with the support of the US government and the European Union to make a clear stand against the limitations that the Iraqi government is imposing on the residents. The UN, US and EU must ensure the human rights of the residents are met.
UNAMI cannot justify a stance which is clearly not neutral as a result of Iraqi pressure. We urge you firstly to ensure that the Iraqi police station and its forces leave the camp and are stationed outside the perimeter of it. Furthermore, you must guarantee the safety and well being of the residents by ensuring they have direct and free access to medical services and that their freedom of movement is secured. UNAMI must keep the gates of Camp Liberty open to reporters, lawyers and the families of the residents.
The above points must be addressed immediately, especially in relation to the presence of Iraqi police or Camp Liberty will be deemed to be a prison. In such circumstances there can be no further transfer of residents to Camp Liberty until such time as the current 400 residents at Camp Liberty have been safely transferred to third party states.
