The Sad Destiny

Parviz and Khosrow (Ali and Ali Asghar Mirza Ja’far Allaf) who were living with us in the same team-house had the same positions as mine. They were also shocked badly with the newly created conditions. They had been suggested to choose one of two choices. They could remain in MKO and follow its strategies and keep their Islamic believes secret and personal. MKO was promising them it would create an Islamic branch for the Muslim comrades. The second choice them was going abroad and continuing the struggle there. There was a third choice too, but never said.

Parviz who was the lesser brother had lost his wife, job and money for MKO goals and it was really hard for him to miss what he believed; it was impossible. He was upset and restless and sometimes would say dangerous things. At first he had decided to separate from MKO without any coordination with it and enter the society. Since he had no security covering, it was possible for him to be arrested and killed. Observing his restlessness MKO became suspicious and worried about him. They were worried if he gets out of MKO and make it hurt.

Iraj explained the restlessness in Parviz mind in a session and finally concluded that he was a betrayer and had to be killed. He suggested me to kill him. I was shocked by hearing this but controlled myself and began arguing. I could satisfy him not to get rid of Parviz. I said: “There are some other ways too. Let him go to another town. He had helped MKO about 500 thousand Tomans. Give him back 50 thousand Tomas of that money and let him buy a house out here and gradually his problem would be solved…” Iraj watching my hard position apparently accepted what I said.

Day by day Parviz was getting harder and harder to tolerate by MKO. I’d become more cautious too. I worried if MKO would find the same image about me. However, as a matter of fact they had planned much deeper wells on my way. Parviz was feeling lonely and alone. He was completely cut and in an unbalanced situation. I wanted to follow my own plans with him but his behavior and unbalanced actions would take the chance from me.

During these days, Iraj -the strictly faithful person to MKO- would report all of our actions and behavior to MKO from head to toe. There were several sessions held to discuss our situation. Iraj would say: “Shapour’s condition is completely different; he wants to go out to struggle but Parviz is cut from MKO and it is possible for him to be arrested and reveal everything. So, he should be wiped out.” I would strictly oppose this idea. Finally, I suggested sending him abroad.

One day Iraj came and told me that MKO had accepted my suggestion and decided to send Parviz abroad and I had to forge a perfect passport for him. It was the apparent figure of the story and actually MKO was following its own devil plan.

I was pessimistic to this inlet of hope and suspiciously began forging the passport for him along with Khosrow (his brother) and then delivered it to Ali.

Another day Iraj came and took the keys of car and said: “We are going to pass Parviz over the border.” I hopelessly gave the keys to him. Then I hugged Parviz and kissed and smelled him; I saw the worry in his eyes. He began crying in my arms; I also cried. He said: “Shapour! I am gone. But God knows what will happen…” I said: “Trust God!” I was burning in worry but there was no other way. We had to trust!

Two days later, Iraj came and said: “Hey pals! Parviz passed the border.” I was still worried and could not believe what he said; so, I surprisingly asked: “He passed the border!!” Iraj understood that I was not meaning the geographical border but the border of this world and the other world. His face got red and angrily said: “What does it mean?” I said: “With this easiness!” He said: “We took him to the airport and nobody checked his passport; then he boarded the plane and went.” And then in order to make me trust said: “MKO thanked you for good forgery of that passport.” I laughed at their thankfulness.

Iraj said: “Now it is your turn! MKO has presented you two ways. First way is to go abroad and join the comrades in Zofar; second way is to join the new separated branch of MKO including some other Muslim members whom you know!”
