Sometimes Muslims come to the West in order to get out from under the full or partial enforcement of the Sharia, and to secularize and live their lives in peace. And sometimes their radical brethren don’t allow them to do this. From the Copenhagen Post, with thanks to Ali Dashti:
Iran’s clerical regime is resorting to shady tactics against its opponents in Denmark. Daily newspaper Information reported that Iranian refugees in the country have been subjected to extortion and pressure, presumably by agents from the Iranian Embassy in Copenhagen. Informants from the nation’s Iranian émigré community have passed on information to agents that has in many cases had drastic consequences for family members in Iran.
Several Iranian refugees spoke with the newspaper for its report, including defected Iranian diplomat Perviz S. Khazai, who represents the National Council of Resistance in Iran (NCRI) in Scandinavia.
“˜I believe the Iranian regime has 50-60 very active ‘Gestapo’ style agents in Scandinavia – predominantly embassy workers and refugees who forward information on other refugees. In Denmark alone, there are at least 5-10. I know one of them by name,” said Khazai.
