summary: "Tehran contact for the Hashemi brothers, head of the Dervish movement, and son-in-law of future Iranian president Rafsanjani."
---
[[Iran Najd Rankuni]] was the [[Tehran]] contact for the [[Hashemi brothers]]. He was the head of the Dervish movement and a son-in-law of [[Ali Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani|Hojjat El-Islam Ali Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani]], who was to become president of [[Iran]].[^1]
[[Iran Najd Rankuni|Rankuni]] was connected with the [[Iranian Revolution]]. However, he did not have direct access to the Supreme Council, which actually called the shots in [[Iran]], and therefore could not set up a serious dialogue between the [[United States|Americans]] and the [[Iran|Iranians]] for the release of the hostages.[^1]
