The martyrdom of Seyyed Ali Andarzgo, the revolutionary warrior

NAVIDESHAHED: Martyr Seyyed Ali Andarzgoo was born in Ramadan of 1939 in Tehran. Poverty and hardship of livelihood made him to dropout of education to work, but at the same time he turned to religious sciences and accomplished Fiqh and Usol courses. He made acquaintance with Martyr Navab Safavi in his adolescence and became highly inspired by his anti-oppression spirit. During the uprising of June 5, 1963, he joined anti-Regime struggles and so was pursued and then comprehended by SAVAK hirelings. He suffered savage tortures but remained steadfast in his way. After release, he joined the military branch of Islamic Motalefeh (Islamic Coalition) and, in the first action, took part in revolutionary execution of Hassan Ali Mansour, the pro-American subservient and the contributor to the passage of Capitulation and Imam Khomeini’s exile. Despite being as young as 19, Martyr Andarzgoo played a prominent role in the assassination. Thereafter, he was highly wanted by the Regime and forced to constantly move from one place to another. In order to avoid being identified by SAVAK, he was to appear in public in different disguises and with different pseudonyms. Andarzgoo played a colorful role in importing weapons to the country for the sake of armed struggle and, accordingly, he conducted some trips to other countries. After years of chase and escape, SAVAK eventually located him and recognized that he was invited to house of a friend in the eve of Ramadan 19. The place was surrounded and Martyr Andarzgoo who found no way of escape swallowed the documents he was carrying in order to avoid them being accessed by SAVAK. The Regime officers could injure him after an armed conflict, but at the same time they were alarmed in the prospect of he was carrying explosives. During this struggle on August 24, 1978, the eminent Martyr Andarzgoo, only 39, was martyred and reached his old aspiration while he was still fasting. Martyr Andarzgoo was planning to assassinate the Shah, but his martyrdom obstructed him.
