Corruption is rampant within the institutions of the Iranian regime, especially those owned by Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, who possesses the capabilities of the Iranian people.

An economic institution under the supervision of Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei has concluded an agreement to develop part of Iran’s second largest oil field.

The Maroun field has been producing oil for more than 50 years, but in 2015 the International Energy Agency said the field was in urgent need of development and rehabilitation.

Energy Custer Sina Corporation was established in 2007 and is owned by Al-Mostazafin Corporation under the supervision of Khamenei, who posted the news of the signing of the Maroun oil field agreement on its website.

The Mostazafin Foundation, or what is known as “Bonyad”, actively participates in industrial, financial and construction projects with hundreds of companies, institutions and even banks.

The Mostazafin Foundation is one of the largest economic institutions in Iran and its director is appointed by the guide.

Previous reports indicated that “Bonyad” is the second largest economic institution after the Iranian Oil Company, acquiring hundreds of expensive buildings and some 200 factories and companies.

Khamenei issued a decree exempting the three institutions from paying taxes annually in 1993, while not all are subject to government oversight or parliamentary accountability reviews.
