To tarnish the efforts of the opposition in disclosing the atrocities of Ahmadinejad's government, the most sinister act was planned and implemented. The mother of a girl, Saideh Pouraghai announced that her daughter was detained for chanting on the rooftop and then murdered while in detention. Most opposition websites and papers reported this crime along with others. The mother said that her husband was a war veteran who died a year ago and Saideh was her only daughter. She alleged that she was shown a half burnt body in the morgue whom she identified as her daughter from a mark. Later, a grave was marked and numbered with her name. When some people visited the mother, they saw some men whom she said were 'uncles'. She said she wished to be left alone to mourn her daughter's death!
So far, everything was reported as one of the yet another crime committed by the regime in prisons. A while later, some reporters were suspicious of the whole saga and searched for more information about Saideh's family. It was revealed that her father was not a war veteran and the men in her house were actually the militia who attacked Mr Mousavi's offices a while later!
Some days later, the real Saideh appeared on TV, unravelling the plot. She said that she was living away from home and didn't listen to the news. Recently, she found out the the 'opposition' has included her in the list of those detained and murdered!
The whole saga of detention, murder and burial was staged by the regime with the cooperation of the mother, who was the only person to report and to speak of the case for two purposes:
First, to discredit the actual murder list as they tried to do in the case on Taraneh Mousavi.
Secondly, to distort the matter of the unmarked graves which the opposition believes are those who were buried in haste in a cover up opperation during the recent months.
