“The Iranian Police Force, NAJA, has purchased a company previously owned by Mehdi Hashemi. According to Poul newspaper, the Naji Gharb Company, which is a subsidiary of NAJA’s Mehregan Investment Institute, purchased 49 percent of the shares of the Engineering and Manufacturing Marine Services Company. According to the report, the transfer of shares to NAJA has been announced as privatization. NAJA’s decision to participate in purely economic ventures has come as a surprise. After the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) began to play a more active role in economic and construction projects, it appears to be NAJA’s turn to join the competition. Naji Gharb offered $4 million more than an investment firm owned by the oil industry and purchased the shares for $140 million.” – Khabar Online – Feb 2010
