Babak Zanjani – Embezzlement
and major thefts from Iranian people’s pockets
Following
flaring internal factional disputes in Iran, Iranian First Vice President
Es’hagh Jahangiri participated in an economic rally on Monday, February 15th
and revealed new aspects of theft and plundering during the term of former
Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.
“The people
who should be ashamed are those who sold $22 billion of this nations’ money to
foreigners in Dubai and Istanbul under the pretext of balancing the currency
rates, and they created people like Babak Zanajani who literally lost oil rigs.
They should be ashamed for extracting 170 trillion rials (around $4.8 billion) from
Central Bank resources in a span of 45 days without any permit,” Es’hagh added.
“This year
when the price of oil fell from $100 a barrel to $25, regional countries used
the money they had put aside as savings from those years when oil was $100 a
barrel to run their country. However, these individuals in our country took all
the oil money, spent it, created huge debts and left aside a government in
debt. Various numbers show this government has a debt of above $108 billion,”
he added.
