One of our friends, Mr. Movahedi, had brought me a radio that could pick up all the news and information that the SAVAK agents were exchanging, and I wrote down a few things from there and conveyed them to the Imam through the late martyr Iraqi. One was a plan to encourage people in such a way that a group of people would infiltrate the people to attack the barracks and on the other hand, to sensitize the soldiers to this issue as a defense of their own homes, and the people and the soldiers would somehow get into a fight and incite the soldiers' anger. As soon as I found out about this matter, I conveyed it to the Imam through the late Iraqi, and the Imam issued an announcement that no one had the right to attack the barracks and they stopped this issue with that announcement. Or, for example, one of the very important issues in this regard was that our friends were serving in different places. For example, one of our friends, Amir Totiai, who was a lieutenant at the time and is now a second brigadier general and works in the Joint Staff, was in the Shah's Eternal Guard, that is, in his closest protective circle. While on guard duty, he would transcribe the records of the Shah's palace and bring them to us. For example, he had repeatedly declared his readiness to kill the Shah whenever you want, but he did not consider this advisable for several reasons, including the fact that he did not yet have a religious basis and had not received permission from the authorities.[1]
