To the honorable political-security deputies of the offices of the Governors’ General of the country
Greetings,
Respectfully, we have received reports that some of the elements of the perverse sect of Bahaism are attempting to teach and spread the ideology of Bahaism, under the cover of social and economic activities. In view of the fact that this sect is illegal and that it is exploited by international and Zionist organizations against the government of the Islamic Republic of Iran, we therefore ask you to order the relevant offices to cautiously and carefully monitor and manage their [the Bahá’ís’] social activities. In addition, complete the requested information on the enclosed form and forward it to this office for its use by the fifteenth of Shahrívar [6 September].
Seyyed Mohammad-Reza Mavvalizadeh
Director of the Political Office
