Mojtaba Khamenei : Pourquoi le nouvel ayatollah de l’Iran est considéré comme un homme fortuné
The father is dead, long live the son! Mojtaba, the son of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, was appointed the new Supreme Leader of the Islamic Republic of Iran yesterday, Sunday, by the Assembly of Experts, a council of 88 Shiite clerics. The 56-year-old was born on September 7, 1969, in Mashhad, a religious city in northeastern Iran. He studied at the prestigious Alavi private school in Tehran.
His financial empire extends from maritime transport in the Persian Gulf….
At 17, he joined the ranks of the Basij, the militia of the Islamist regime. He then fought in the war against Iraq alongside Mohsen Hashemi, the eldest son of former Iranian leader Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani. According to multiple sources, the man in his fifties is very close to conservative circles. He is reportedly a conservative himself, just like the ayatollahs who preceded him.
Until his appointment, Mojtaba had held no official position. However, he was very influential and coordinated sensitive matters with his father, Ali Khamenei. Bloomberg magazine describes him as a wealthy man whose financial empire extends from shipping in the Persian Gulf to bank accounts in Switzerland and even luxury properties in Great Britain worth over £100 million ($138 million).
None of the new supreme leader's assets are registered directly in his name.
He owns, among other things, a house purchased in 2014 for £33.7 million, as well as a luxury villa in an area nicknamed "Beverly Hills Dubai," and upscale hotels in several European cities, including Frankfurt and Mallorca. None of the new Supreme Leader's assets are registered directly in his name, according to the American business magazine.
