Note: First of all, I must point out that I am only a historian and I am not responsible for the protection of graves. By the way, this is the result of an unproven research.

The story of the life and death of Amir Abbas Mamdouh, who later changed his surname to Hoveda, is always one of these cases in the contemporary history of Iran.
Some consider him a servant and some consider him a traitor.
In this note, without any judgment about his service or treason, I made an investigation about his burial place, which is based on memories and available documents. However, it must be said that this matter needs official proof and confirmation with all valid documents, and I cannot say that this place is 100% the burial place of Amir Abbas Hoveyda. Therefore, I can only say that by studying history and putting together pieces of the puzzle, you can achieve new results. If we read and learn.
What was mentioned in the memoirs of Ms. Fereshte Ensha from the relatives of Mr. Hoveyda and his special doctor during his detention:
1- We encountered a problem in burying him because his family tomb had been turned into a toilet.
2- Because in the previous days, during the burial ceremony of some others, the bodies were taken out, the worry was that this tragedy would happen. Those people themselves (revolutionaries) rumored that Hoveyda's body was taken by his family to France and buried there.
3- He was buried in Behesht Zahra.
4- His burial place has a mark.
5- Hoveyda's body has been in the morgue for three months.
6- They put a tombstone on Hoveyda's grave.
7- They didn't write his real name on the stone and only indicated the identity of the person lying there in the dirt.
8- The date of his death is April 7, 1979.
9- The day of Hoveyda's burial was the day of the Prophet of Islam
Well, with the available documents, it is enough to find the date of the Prophet's birth in 1979, which is not difficult to convert from a lunar to a solar date. June 21, 1979, is the date of the birth of the Prophet of Islam in that year.
Therefore, the burial date of Amir Abbas Hoveyda is June 21, 1979.
Statistics can be accessed and analyzed with a simple search on the website of Behesht Zahra Organization. On June 21, there were 62 casualties, of which 36 were men, and on July 1, 111 casualties were recorded, of which 59 were men. Therefore, we have to decipher Mr. Hoveyda's name from among the 95 male deaths.
Due to the fact that the graves are marked, one should look for signs. Abbas or Amir should be one of the signs. Because the name of Hoveyda alone was the cause of the crime in those days. By limiting the search circle to Abbas and Amir, only 3 deceased people with the name Abbas can be seen. The next code that helps to decipher is the name of Hoveyda's father, Habib Alah. And this last code takes us to a strange name among the names listed on the official website of the Behesht Zahra organization. Haj Abbas Vahdad Habib Alah. Burial date: June 22, 1979. Row and piece number, 37-82-49.
I asked one of my friends to find the place of his grave with the address of the mentioned row and plot and send me a picture of it. After sending the photo of the tombstone, it was amazing at first. Everything tells about the burial place of Hoveyda.
Let's check the tombstone:
Name: Haj Agha Abbas Vahdad
Child: Habib Allah according to Hoveyda's father's name
Born: 1997 according to the birth date of Hoveyda
Death: 21/06/1979 according to the date of delivery of the body and burial
Poem on stone:
I engraved your beautiful face on the house of my heart
The house was destroyed and that image remained on the wall
It was spring and you were love and hope
Spring went and you went and everything passed
Except for the part of the name, everything matches the specifications of Hoveyda. The only difference in the tombstone is the family of Vahdad, according to Mrs. Ensha's statements, they did not write his real name on his tombstone. All the rest of the information is according to the identity.
The name, date of birth, father's name, date of death (which is of course the date of burial and delivery of the body), the poem on the tombstone, and the burial plot all indicate the burial of Amir Abbas Hoveyda in Behesht Zahra, Tehran.
The interesting thing is that Haj Agha is written on the tombstone before his name and Haj Abbas is written on the Behesht Zahra website.
Another interesting issue is that if you pay attention to the common gravestones, all of them have an inscription about the grave of a kind father, the grave of a caring wife, etc., but since Hoveyda had no wife or children at the time of his death, these expressions were not used. Therefore, according to research, Amir Abbas Hoveyda is not buried in Israel.
I hope this research is not based on desecration of this place. All of us will die one day and have good and bad deeds that will be weighed in the court of divine justice, and the court and judgment belong only to God.
