"The Ministry of Intelligence of the Islamic Republic of Iran (Persian: 
وِزارَتِ اِطّلاعات جُمهوریِ اِسلامیِ ایران Vezarat-e Ettela'at Jomhuri-ye Eslami-ye 
Iran) is the primary intelligence agency of the Islamic Republic of Iran. It is 
also known as VAJA and previously as VEVAK (Vezarat-e Ettela'at va Amniyat-e 
Keshvar) or alternatively MOIS. It was initially known as SAVAMA, when it took 
over the previous government's intelligence apparatus, SAVAK (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAVAK). 
The ministry is one of the three "sovereign" ministerial bodies of Iran due to 
nature of its work at home and abroad. It was established on August 18, 1984."
