A video clip that widely circulated in Iran this month shows a Basiji militiaman, Saeed Tajik, insulting Hashemi Rafsanjani’s family members, particularly his daughter Faezeh, whom he called a whore. The response was wide and many condemned the perpetrators, and the attorney general even claimed to have arrested Tajik.
But the pronouncement of the attorney general was not true. Speaking with Rooz, Saeed Tajik who the attorney general said had been arrested from his office (he heads the Basij militia force at Tehran’s oil refinery) because he had insulted Faezeh Hashemi (Rafsanjani’s daughter), denied his arrest. “I told the attorney general that we have had unrest for 20 months now. You know that every time you arrested this slut she said she was eating a sandwich. What kind of a sandwich is this? They have crossed all the red lines. They have insulted God, the Prophet, the Imam our imam (ayatollah Khomeini), and the current leader. None of you were moved or did anything. Most officials, particularly those in the religious seminaries, have become silent. Who is more senior, Rafsanjani or the hidden imam? Rafsanjani or the supreme leader? They have insulted all our sacred values. But when I called this bitch an ass, everybody felt insulted,” Tajik said.
