Revelations About the Oil Network of Tycoons and Mystics in the Shadows of Power
Yesterday, Saeed Aghenji, a journalist specializing in corruption and the editor-in-chief of Iran Gate, tweeted about the existence of an organized network in the field of oil sales and foreign financial transactions and reported the arrest of two key figures in this network.
Oil Provided to Favorites with Minimal Guarantees
According to Aghenji, two figures named Mohammad Bahmaei and Ali Nazi have been key supporters of the trustees, individuals who, according to his sources, have not returned billions of dollars from oil sales and unsecured bank guarantees. He announced that these two individuals have been arrested, but according to him, efforts are underway to impose a news blackout on this case.
Introducing the Main Circle and the Role of Political-Economic Figures
Aghenji went on to name the main circle of this network and claimed that Ahmad Dehghan and Khodad Gharibpour have played a central role in directing this network.
He also mentioned that the head of this network is Gholamreza Tajgardoon, an individual who, according to his claim, has monopolized the sale of oil and oil derivatives by creating an extensive network. These claims have not yet been met with any official response or explanation from the individuals named.
Reference to Family Connections and Alleged Cases
In another part of this revelation, the name Hamidreza Aref was mentioned, who, according to Aghenji, is the son of the first deputy of the government. He referred to multiple cases against him, including allegations such as selling positions, brokering for the network, and the so-called Ashtiani house affair, and promised to release more documents.
International Dimensions of the Network
According to this tweet, the alleged network is not limited to within the country and has branches in the United Arab Emirates, Germany, and Canada. Aghenji reported identifying part of this circle abroad and announced that more details will be gradually released.
He also mentioned the Canadian citizenship and the use of a Rolls-Royce car in the UAE by the child of one of the related figures, and said he will publish documents related to these matters.
Demand from Responsible Authorities
At the end of his tweet, Aghenji addressed the judicial and security authorities, stating that if they are looking for the main factors behind the country’s current situation, they should pursue these individuals, not the young people who, according to him, have been harmed in prisons or on the streets.
