A cabaret guard who was killed in the war



No matter what I called him, he did not answer. I wanted to take his body back, but I couldn’t. The Iraqis approached, and I had to go back. Shah Rukh’s body was lying on the ground. The Iraqis were on top of him and cheering. That same night, Iraqi TV showed his headless body. The Iraqi announcer said, We killed Shahrokh, the executioner of the Iranian government. Two days later, we attacked again. We reached the same embankment. But there was no trace of Shah Rukh’s body.
