Supporters of Iran ‘s exiled crown prince Reza Pahlavi were looking on Saturday to world leaders gathered in Munich, Germany, to ratchet up pressure for change on the Iranian government. Supporters of the Iranian opposition group, People’s Mujahedeen Organisation of Iran, also known as the Mujahedeen-e-Khalq, demonstrated against Iran’s deadly crackdown on nationwide protests last month. At a news conference in Munich on Saturday, Pahlavi warned of the likelihood of more deaths in Iran if “democracies stand by and watch”. “We gather at an hour of profound peril to ask: Will the world stand with the people of Iran?” he asked. The Associated Press has been unable to independently assess the death toll, given authorities have disrupted internet access and international calls in Iran.
