From two channels, Iran’s
former president, Abolhassan Banisadr has been informed that radicals within the
Iranian regime have made plans to assassinate Professor Mehran Mostafavi, an
expert in nuclear physics at Paris University.
There are two main reasons for this decision. The first is to undermine
President Rouhani’s attempt to end the nuclear crisis. The second is that, through Voice of America,
he has been successfully challenging the regime’s rationale for building
nuclear reactors enriching uranium and exposed the great damage which such
policies have had on the Iranian economy. The arguments and information he has
provided to Iranians within Iran have enabled them to question the logic and
cost of the country’s nuclear plans, which have put the regime on the
defensive.
According to the same
information, Rouhani’s government is aware of the plan and trying to stop it. But
the radicals, who have their own resources and structure for assassination,
have ignored his attempt.
It is important to know
that, in the past, the Iranian regime used to systematically assassinate its opponents
in European countries -- nearly ninety overall.
At the Mykonos trial in 1997, which followed the assassination of four
Kurdish leaders in Germany and the arrest of the suspects, Banisadr provided information
which proved that all the assassinations were taking place with the direct
approval of Iranian leaders. As a result,
the court issued an international arrest warrant for Iranian leaders including
Hashemi Rafsanjani, then president, and Ali Khamenei, the supreme leader.
The political crisis
which followed only subsided when the Iranian regime promised to stop assassinating
its opponents in the west, which it did. If the radicals try to implement their
plan, it would be the first attempt since the Mykonos trial.
