He is currently the tactical commander of Sepah in Tehran, Hamedan and various other provinces of the Islamic Republic of Iran.
Jamali also said that he went through 50 hours of interviews with the Akbar-nejad and other figures like commanders Taghi Mehri, Morteza Ghorbani and Kohansal Komeil (all Akbar-nejad’s comrades) to garner the needed data for completion of the book.
Jamali has not yet reached a firm decision about the book’s title.
The book is arranged in 200 pages and each of its chapters covers a part of the commander’s life.
