Mohammad Sarafraz described in an interview how the business networks through which state-run conglomerates linked to the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) and quasi-governmental foundations, or bonyads, funnel public funds into private pockets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWhen they want to receive benefits, the companies call themselves private and individuals pocket the proceeds while avoiding (governmental) supervision. When they want to use government funds and facilities, they call themselves state-owned companies,\u201d Sarafraz alleged in a video uploaded to YouTube on May 4.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Conglomerates run by the IRGC, the bonyads, as well as state-linked banks have multiple ways of receiving kickbacks from state coffers, added Sarafraz. \u201cA large part of these financial conspiracies\u201d involves companies owned by the IRGC, Execution of Imam Khomeini\u2019s Order (EIKO)*<strong> <\/strong>and other bonyads and associated banks, he explained, adding that the corruption implicates officials across the political spectrum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIt is not a principlist, reformist or left or right thing,\u201d he said. \u201cThey\u2019re all in it together.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sarafraz\u2019s statements align with the findings of an unrelated Doublethink investigation on bonyads. He added that such systemic corruption could be resolved by reducing the overhead costs of state-owned companies and implementing structural reforms in the government. \u201cNo president or government has ever broached these two issues because of the serious consequences that it would have for them,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An extensive Doublethink investigation of the Iranian economy revealed that 99 of the country\u2019s top 100 businesses are linked to the bonyads, the government, or both. Hundreds of individuals with ties to EIKO, Mostazafan Foundation, Astan Qods Razavi bonyads and the IRGC-owned Sepah Cooperative Foundation (BTS) sit on the boards of major banks, oil companies, investment funds and regulatory bodies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Doublethink\u2019s research further shows that Iran\u2019s leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who legally oversees the bonyads, has shown a consistent lack of will to investigate corrupt activities involving these entities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"page-header-minor muted wp-block-paragraph\">Footnote<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p
