Ansar-e Hezbollah is a conservative paramilitary force loyal to the supreme leader and dedicated to upholding the Revolution. Indeed, there have been reports that members of the group were used to crack down on protesters.
Yet Masoud Dehnamaki co-founder of Ansar-e Hezbollah, has spoken out against the regime according to this report by NIAC. Dehnamaki was one of the most conservative members of the regime and his statements are shocking coming from a man who participated in the 1999 crackdown against the student revolt:
“Members of this government should rely on the rule of law and not put their eggs in one basket. This government came into power by making claims against others for being corrupt, however they themselves have committed acts of corruption. And since there is no credibility and accountability for his government, corruption will remain.”
Also he goes on to say "today’s leadership has distanced itself from the path of the Imam [Khomeini]"
This type of criticism from such a conservative guy cannot by good for those trying to cling to power.
