Mojtaba Khamenei is the 56-year-old son of Ayatollah Khamenei, the late unlamented leader of Iran who recently proved, as tyrants often do, that “nothing in his life became him like the leaving it.” Daddy’s little boy even in his mid-50s, Mojtaba is has just been named to succeed his father.
Mojtaba has one thing in common with his late father: he loves money, and all the things that money can buy. Reports from Western intelligence services estimate Ayatollah Khamenei’s net worth was $95 billion. Some estimates go even higher. How much of this money will end up in Mojtaba’s clammy grasp is unknown, but even before his father’s death Mojtaba was said to have a net worth of $3 billion. He has gold and diamonds worth $300 million, and has reportedly distributed $2 billion across foreign bank accounts in the UAE, Syria, Venezuela, and several African states. He also has extensive land holdings near Mashhad in eastern Iran. Finally, he has a property empire in London, Dubai, and on the continent of Europe. Just two of his apartments in Kensington are worth 50 million euros.

The son of Iran’s recently killed dictator owns two luxury apartments overlooking the Israeli embassy in London, with experts warning of a ‘serious security breach’, it emerged on Saturday night.
Mojtaba Khamenei – tipped to succeed his father Ali Khamenei as Iran’s new Ayatollah – owns the properties in Kensington, west London, with an estimated value of more than £50million.
The sixth and seventh floor apartments, which come with servants’ quarters on the ground floor, are a stone’s throw from Kensington Palace, the official residence of the Prince and Princess of Wales.
Khamenei, 56, is understood to have owned the two apartments since 2014, but his ownership only emerged after a year-long investigation by the news channel Bloomberg.
It has revealed Khamenei also owns 11 mansions in Hampstead, North London, through a front man and a shell company registered in the Isle of Man.
The Bloomberg investigation also revealed Khamenei has amassed a portfolio of properties around the world worth hundreds of millions of pounds.
The funds for the purchases came from Iran’s sanction-busting oil programme. according to the probe.
The revelations that Khamenei – a leader within the feared Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) – owns two flats that look down on the Israeli embassy building raises fears the apartments may have been used to spy on the diplomatic mission….
Mojtaba Khamenei, daddy’s little helper, must be wondering. He thinks to himself in an interior monologue: If the Assembly of Experts chooses me to succeed my father, do I decline, because of the risk involved — the Israelis have already said the next Supreme Leader will not be the Supreme Leader for long — or should I do the first brave thing I’ve ever done in my life, and accept the job? I suppose that if I am killed, I’ll be a martyr and end up in the Mohammedan heaven, Jannah, with the 72 virgins, which isn’t such a bad outcome. But how sad that I will have to leave behind my two flats in Kensington, my bank accounts in London and Dubai, my landholdings in Mashhad, and that portfolio of properties around the world worth hundreds of millions of dollars, in Belgravia and Mayfair in London, on Avenue Foch and Avenue Montaigne in Paris, and on Via Margutta and Via del Babuino in Rome. Questions, questions, so much to think about, and I’m only 56.

If he really believes in the 72 virgins fantasy, then those Kensington flats and all else would mean nothing to him
Incidentally, I remember in 2022, after the Russian invasion of Ukraine, assets of not just Russian leaders but also oligarchs were frozen e.g. their yachts were seized, their bank accounts frozen, teams that they owned were detached from them…. How do members of the Khamenei clan get to buy and own property in the West, when it’s well known that Iran has much more of a rogue regime than Russia?

The latest news seems to be that he’s lost one of his legs. Also, there was supposed to be a ceremony inaugurating him today, but they brought in his portrait instead, accompanied by a text message 😂🤣

Westman says
This is a surprise? Aren’t the Mullahs and terrorist group leaders all parasites on the “believers”? Name one who isn’t.
The travesty is the believers do nothing about it.
OLD GUY says
Yes the millions of dollars he and his father have all came from the poor people of Iran. Just like all criminal organizations the top live in luxury while the people supporting them live in slums.

Yep–they do not just rob Infidels.
Tim gallagher says
2026 and the leaders of Iran are clerics
, one knuckle dragging scumbag bites the dust and another knuckle dragging ape like primitive takes over. 7th century arab life continues on. What a fucked up country it is. Islam is primitive garbage.

All that money – with a big, beautiful bull’s-eye on his back.
Transmaster says
Mojtaba Khamenei, son of slain Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and Iran’s newly appointed Supreme Leader, was critically injured in a U.S.–Israeli airstrike this afternoon.
He later succumbed to his injuries, according to initial reports.
Official confirmation from Tehran is still awaited.
JS says
I believe he’s dead, too. He hasn’t been seen since that airstrike and only came out later that he lost a leg. Did he then die from his injuries? I believe so, but we shall see.
࿗Infidel࿘ says
According to Tousi, he has gone missing 😂🤣

Latest is that he was injured, but is still around.
abu taleb says
It shouldn’t be a surprise that Khamenei has a lot of wealth in Londonistan because the evil traitor of UK, Keir Starmer is in bed with Iran government.
UK is beyond hope.

Actually, more than that, every Russian citizen associated either w/ Putin’s regime or major Russian oligarchs have had their assets impounded, in what looked like a major infringement on property rights in the West – something that could only have been expected of the Soviet Union. How do Iranian leaders skate? There is Khamenei’s mansions in Kensington, and in the US, Larijani’s daughter was an employee of Emory University until the State Department forced them to remove her. But why do regime figures find entry to the West in the first place?
Boog says
It will be a good day when a bomb drops on his head. Khamenei II is an evil man and should have been red-misted 30 years ago along with his papa.
