The Imam's Arrest <br />This crushing speech caused the Shah to fly into a rage. <br />On the night of the 15th of Khordad, troops besieged Qom <br />and rushed to the Imam's home and he was taken to Tehran <br />where he was held in custody in the Qasr prison. He was <br />later transferred to the Ishrat Abad Garrison. The next day <br />the people in Qom rushed to the streets and led by Haj-Mustafa <br />Khomeini, the Imam's son, shouted the slogan: "Either Death <br />or Khomeini!". In Tehran the people demonstrated shouting <br />for his immediate release from prison. The bazaar and the <br />university in Tehran were closed down. Troops opened fire <br />on the people; casualties were heavy. Despite the security <br />crackdown, the next day, (the 16th of Khordad), there were <br />again demonstrations in Tehran in support of Imam Khomeini. <br />In many other cities and towns of Iran the people went out on <br />strike. There was no casualty list available, but some 15,000 <br />and 400 people were reported killed in Tehran and in Qom <br />respectively.
