Life

In the words of those close to them

According to the statements of one of Mr. Raji's children, before his own arrest, at around five in the morning on Golestan-e Haftom Street, he had seen his father alive.— One of Mr. Raji's children
Persian original

بنا به اظهارات یکی از فرزندان آقای راجی، او پیش از بازداشت خود در حوالی ساعت پنج صبح در خیابان گلستان هفتم پدرش را زنده دیده بود.

“Mr. Raji's birth certificate and national ID card were in his pocket. Later we received these documents from Evin Prison”— The Raji family
Persian original

«شناسنامه و کارت ملی آقای راجی در جیبش بود. بعدها این مدارک را ما از زندان اوین تحویل گرفتیم»

According to a person close to the family, Mr. Raji was very principled and therefore, on seeing the “inhumane” conduct and “financial plundering” of the IRGC, gradually became “disillusioned” with this body and requested a buyout from service, but this request was refused.— A person close to the family
Persian original

به گفته‌ یک فرد نزدیک به خانواده، آقای راجی بسیار اخلاق‌مدار بود و از این رو با مشاهده رفتارهای «غیرانسانی» و «چپاول‌های مالی» سپاه، کم‌کم نسبت این ارگان «دلسرد» شد و تقاضای بازخرید از خدمت کرد ولی با این خواسته‌اش مخالفت شد.
