Yasmin Pahlavi, Reza Pahlavi's wife, said that the Frankfurt police officially informed them that they are not allowed to participate and speak at the gathering on Shabbat and prevented them from coming. According to him, the reason for this decision was the threat of violence against the Islamic Republic and the possibility of attacking the participants in the gathering. Prince Reza Pahlavi is going to receive the Freedom Award from the people of Iran on Saturday in Frankfurt. Mrs. Pahlavi, while appreciating the police forces, saw that this decision was influenced by "political considerations" and not just security, and asked when a terrorist threat determines who has the right to speak in a democracy.
