Rostam (Persian: رستم, pronounced [ɾostæm, ɾʊstæm]) is the national hero of Greater Iran in Persian mythology. Rostam is the champion of champions. As a young child, he slays the maddened white elephant of the king with just one blow of the mace owned by his grand father. He then tames his legendary stallion, Rakhsh. Persian rumour has it that the name 'Rostam' is actually based on a historical character named "Retzehem", who was believed to be an Achaemenid general. Retzehem supposedly helped the Persians conquering the city of Sardis by climbing up the walls, throwing a rope and pulling up his fellow soldiers.
There are some interesting similarities between the legends of Rostam and those pertaining to the great Irish hero, Cúchulainn. They both defeat a ferocious beast as a very young man, slay their sons in combat, are virtually invincible in combat, and are murdered by treachery while killing their murderer on their last breath. It is written by the Royal Central Asian Society in the Journal of the Royal Central Asian Society that the struggle between Rostam and the white demon represents a struggle between Persians and invaders from the north, from the Caspian provinces in Iran.

3. He controls key leaders in opposition parties (wakiwemo baadhi ya viongozi ndani ya CHADEMA, NCCR and CUF - wanajulikana)
4. Ndiye atakaye mchagua Rais wa Tanzania 2015.
BACKGROUND
Mwanasheria Mkuu wa serikali (AG), Frederick Werema, amesema kuwa Rostam Aziz ndiye amepewa "power of attorney" kuwa mwakilishi wa Dowans Holdings AS na Dowans Tanzania Limited.
A power of attorney (POA) is a legal document allowing one person (in this case Rostam) to act in a legal matter on another's behalf (Dowans) regarding to financial transactions. This legal document gives Rostam legal rights of law to speak and sign documents for Dowans. It gives Rostam written authorization to execute actions on behalf of Dowans, such as accepting payments and moving funds.
Kwa lugha nyepesi, Rostam ndiyo Dowans na malipo yanayotaka kulazimishwa na serikali ya shilingi 185.5 billion shillings atalipwa Rostam kwa niaba ya Dowans.
Rostam alitajwa na ripoti ya kamati ya Bunge ya Richmond iliyoongozwa na Harrison Mwakyembe kuwa alihusika na Richmond/Dowans lakini amekuwa akikanusha vikali jambo hili.
Hatimaye leo serikali ya Kikwete inajiandaa kulipa pesa hizi za wavuja jasho wa taifa hili kwa njia za kifisadi, Rostam anajitokeza hadharani kuwa ndiye msimamizi mkuu wa shuhuli zote za Dowans hapa Tanzania.
Uhalifu huu huu wa "power of attorney" ulitumiwa na watuhumiwa wa ufisadi wa rada -- Tanil Somaiya na Shailesh Vithlani -- wakati walipokuwa wasimamizi wa kampuni ya offshore kama Dowans ambayo ilipewa $12 million na BAE Systems kupitia akaunti ya benki ya Uswisi ambazo zilitumika kugawa rushwa ya rada kwa kina Andrew Chenge, Dk. Idris Rashidi, na vigogo wengine wa serikali ya Mkapa.
