Mojahedin deny lies by mullahs' Intelligence Minister, Judiciary

In a radio and television interview this afternoon, Ghorban-Ali Dorri Najafabadi, Khatami's Minister of Intelligence, implicitly attributed the recent heinous murders in Tehran to the Mojahedin. He claimed "this kind of crimes are rooted abroad" and "the enemies" want to create "turmoil" and "unrest" in the country and portray it as "crisis-riddled."

Simultaneously, the Agence France Presse quoted a spokesman for the Judiciary and wrote that those arrested in connection with the recent killings have been also "implicated in the August murder of former Prison Chief Assadollah Lajevardi," Iran's Eichemann.

By churning out such lies and attributing these heinous murders to the Mojahedin and elements abroad, the mullahs' Intelligence Ministry and the Judiciary seek to conceal the true identity of the perpetrators and masterminds of these crimes who are none other than the leaders and agents of this regime.

The clerical regime's leaders thus are trying to evade the domestic and international repercussions of these crimes and at the same time prepare the grounds for the military and terrorist attacks against the bases of the Iranian Resistance in Iraqi territory and other countries.

The bogus claims of the regime's Intelligence Minister, the Judiciary and other officials reveal the mullahs' fear of the escalation of the activities and operations of the Mojahedin inside Iran and the public's overwhelming support for them as the greatest and the most serious threat to their existence.
