Exclusive — Contrary to the common rumor that says Sheikh Mehdi Karoubi, in a meeting with Ayatollah Khamenei, heard from the second Leader that Seyyed Mojtaba Khamenei is not an "Aghazadeh"; rather, he is an "Agha."

Based on Abdi Media's solid findings, the correct account is this:

Sheikh Ali Akbar Nateq Nouri complained to Ayatollah Khamenei about Mojtaba Khamenei's interference in the preparations for the 2005 presidential election and asked the second Leader of the Islamic Republic:

"What responsibility does Agha Mojtaba, the Aghazadeh, have in this regard?"

The then Leader of the Islamic Republic also replied coldly:

"He is not an Aghazadeh; he himself is an Agha."

And this, of course, was during the process of the activities of the Coordination Council of the Coalition, when Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, after meeting with Ayatollah Khamenei, sent a message to this council to remove his name from this coalition.

Also, Sadegh Kharazi, in a separate meeting with Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani in 2004, said that Mojtaba Khamenei intended to put forward Mr. Mahmoud Ahmadinejad for the presidency.

Likewise, Ali Larijani, in a meeting with Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani at the same time, spoke of the deadlock in the Coordination Council of the Forces of the Islamic Revolution and explicitly considered Ayatollah Khamenei and his son Seyyed Mojtaba Khamenei to be the cause of the deadlock, and imagined that they were seeking the presidency for Gholamali Haddad Adel.

Also, Mahmoud Vaezi told Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani about the conflict between the Society of Veterans and the Abadgaran Coalition and others, and citing Sheikh Ali Akbar Nateq Nouri, considered Mojtaba Khamenei to be the cause of it and sent a message to Ayatollah Khamenei that he was withdrawing from this coordination responsibility.

Of course, Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani, in a private meeting with Ayatollah Khamenei, asked about the rumor of a difference between Seyyed Ali Asghar Hejazi and Seyyed Mojtaba Khamenei over the candidates, and heard the answer: "These two individuals are not active in the elections at all!"
