Preparations for the Lifting of the Siege of Ayatollah Montazeri According to Gholamhossein Mohseni Ejeh in the Diary of December 21, 2001 Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani

In the evening, Mr. Mohseni Ejei, the head of the Special Court for the Clergy (the special prosecutor appointed for the clergy is correct), came and praised the sermons of the recent Friday prayers.
He said: "At home, he told his wife that he had made such a decision, and his wife, who had heard the sermons, said to thank me on my behalf, because they are angry with Israel and the counter-revolution." He said: "In the case of Ayatollah Montazeri, they have come close to a solution, except for Seyyed Hadi Hashemi and one other person, all his supporters have been released."
In a meeting held at Mr. Montazeri's house to celebrate the baby of Saeed's son, the prisoners were also taken away, and Mr. Montazeri spoke positively and said that the regime should be forgiving and forgiving, and Saeed and Seyyed Hadi (meaning Seyyed Hashemi Hashemi) said that the very fact that we have this meeting is a sign of the pardon of the regime.
He said: "I have asked Ayatollah Montazeri for a meeting and the date has not yet been determined, but on one of the nights of Ramadan, Mr. Ahmad Montazeri invited him to break his fast, but he was unable to go, and Ayatollah Montazeri also spoke on the phone and thanked them for their efforts to solve the problems of the cases."
He said: "Given the leniency in his behavior, it would be good to lift the siege and hand over the property in the Hussainiyya."
He also criticized the way the judiciary dealt with the opposition and the quality of its treatment of economic corruption (on this date, Mohseni Ejeh himself was the deputy director general and head of the Special Judicial Complex, which dealt with the press and individuals, except for the economic one, and was one of the members of the elected delegation along with Seyyed Ebrahim Raeesi to deal with individuals and the press) and said that they did not have the right policy and strategy, and I agreed.
