After the forged prophet of Baha’ism participated at the riot in the country and his role in king Naseruddin’s assassination[1], some struggles were done by the government for executing him. These struggles eventually failed with the threat of the Russian consul in Iran concerning opening bloodbath in Tehran. However, why did the Russian government support this Babi religion maker leader?!
According to the report by Hussein Ali’s paternal aunt (:Mirza Yosof’s wife) which was also confirmed by Abbas Effendi: “And this influential government (czar Russia) decided to undo Baha’s execution plan. A remarkable scene happened in the court. The Russian consul revolted fearlessly and addressed the members of the court and said: “Have you ever revenged ruthlessly yet? I am going to support this sinless gentleman (:Baha). So, be careful. If you hurt him, I will open bloodbath in this city. I hope you pay attention to my caution and know that my government (Russian) is protecting me in this regard.[2]
Consequently, after this threat, the claimant of Baha’ism prophet got free and the verdict for his exile was issued for him.[3] Indeed, what is the Russian colonial government consul’s aim for threatening Hussein Ali Nouri’s court and why did it support the Babi head?!
