In Act IV Scene 2 Iago lies to Roderigo, telling him that Othello is being sent to Mauretania where Roderigo will never have a chance to see Desdemona. Iago tells him that this is only possible because there is a competent replacement for Othello on hand in Cyprus in the person of Cassio. Get rid of Cassio, and Othello must stay in Cyprus. In this way Iago dupes Roderigo into trying to murder Cassio in Act V.
In the Act III Scene III of Othello, Iago insinuates to Othello that Cassio is in possession of a special handkerchief owned by Desdemona.
