According to Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty, "Marz-e Por-Gohar was established in Tehran by a group of nationalist secular writers and journalists in 1998, but now some of them live in Los Angeles". Roozbeh Farahanipour, the party's leader and twelve other members were arrested in Iran student protests, July 1999.
