Let them drink first!
By: Ateqah Sadiqi (his wife)
Mr. Rajaee was arrested by SAVAK and we were completely uniformed of his situation. After three months they gave us ten minutes to visit him. Of course they wanted to take advantage of this matting and get some precise information about him, his partisans, sympathizer, and friend .Before meeting they asked some Questions from his sister. And me in order to acquire some secret information, but they obtained nothing. It was interesting that they did not inform him, that he is going to visit us; there fore he thought that as usual they are taking him to be across-examined and tortured.
When we saw him, he was very pale and feeble which indicated that during the period he was arrested, he was not exposed to light.
Usually in this kind of meetings SAVAK did not let families to bring anything for the prisoners except a little fruit juice; we did the same and took about two glasses of fruit juice in a flask. When we offered Mr .Rajaee a glass of fruit juice, he refused to take it and pointed to the guards who had taken him to visit us and said:”?First, let these gentlemen drink, then I will drink.”?
Apart from Islamic emotion, he did so in order to make prison officials optimistic toward political prisoners and neutralize SAVAK’s conspiracy.
