He said: They are following up this issue within the context of cultural, political and economic issues and they are use their infiltrating elements and sceptics. By revitalizing this issue in the Islamic Republic of Iran, the enemies intend to take the country back to the early days of the revolution when they were provoking the [Iranian] Baluchis, Turks and Arab minorities to turn against the system. The MP went on to say: They are attempting to identify the remnants of the former [Shah] regime in the country and use them to achieve their goals.
Asgari said that Abdolmalik Rigi, bandit leader in Sistan and Baluchestan Province, was an example of these remnants, adding: Rigi was a theology student who was expelled from the Saravan theological seminary and was very poor. However, through the money and arms provided by America, he became a Mullah Omar within a year. |
