On the night when the Nojeh Coup d'etat occurred, Mr. Khamene'i and Mr. Hashimi went to meet with the Imam and suggested to him that it was better that he shifted to another location. The Imam stated: "I will not take a single step out from here." He was counseled that his life was in danger but he replied "No, I am not in danger, you may leave and defend yourselves as well as the radio and television broadcasting station. Ask them to place equipment here so that it is ready in case I want to relay a message." According to reports received, an attack on the Imam's residence was imminent on that same night. Thus Mr. Khamene'i again reiterated saying that it was possible that he might not be alive until tomorrow to relay a message. With a suggestive smile the Imam stated: "Rest assured that nothing will happen to me and you be concerned about your own safety and I will not go anywhere from here." On that not only did he not step out of his residence, rather, he amazingly boosted the morale of all and the two gentlemen took leave of the Imam with a peace of mind. [1]
