I had met Shaheed Baqeri before the [Islamic] Revolution. A friend from Mashhad who was studying at the University of Tabriz brought the late Shaheed Agha Mehdi Baqeri to Mashhad. I saw him there. He was an ordinary student, but Imam Khomeini turned this [ordinary] university student into a role model, a great figure, and a brilliant commander.
