    Empress Farah: My life in exile.
    Thirteen months ago the Empress
    Farah was forced to flee Iran with
    her husband, the Shah, who had
    ruled for 37 years. Since then they
    have been forced to seek asylum
    in a variety of countries and the
    perilous nature of the Shahs illness-
    has become public knowledge. "
    Today in an exclusive interview, the
    Empress talks about their life as
    wandering exiles, her children, her
    past financial dealings and her
    attitude towards the assassination
    squads of Ayatollah Khalkhali.
