TEHRAN -- Iran’s Judiciary said Wednesday the man arrested in 2020 and convicted of extensive collaboration with the Israeli spy agency Mossad has been executed.
“After identification, arrest, and judicial proceedings against Pedram Madani, who was spying in favor of the Zionist regime, and following the complete process of criminal procedure and the final confirmation and upholding of the verdict by the Supreme Court, he was brought to justice and executed,” the Judiciary’s Mizan news agency reported.
The news agency said Madani was arrested in Tehran in 2020 on charges of “spying for the intelligence service of the usurping Zionist regime (Mossad),” and “acquiring illicit wealth through receiving foreign currency cash in Europe (euros) and cryptocurrency (Bitcoin).”
Madani was accused of sharing classified information and holding meetings with Mossad officers abroad.
“The accused, who had traveled to and from Germany before his arrest, underwent Mossad training and sought to recruit individuals, collect, and share classified information with his handler through a secure communication system,” Mizan said.
Madani was also reported by the news agency to have “met his direct Mossad handler at the Zionist regime’s embassy in Brussels during one of several meetings in various countries.”
The Judiciary said he had traveled to “the occupied territories” before his arrest in 2020-2021.
“After undergoing a complete criminal procedure, Pedram Madani was convicted of espionage for the Zionist regime’s intelligence service (Mossad) on charges of waging war against God and corruption on Earth, and was sentenced to death. Ultimately, following the issued verdicts and legal formalities, the convict was executed by hanging,” Mizan underlined.
Back in April, the Judiciary announced the execution of Mohsen Langarneshin, a high-profile Mossad agent for his involvement in the 2022 assassination of a member of Iran’s Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) in the capital Tehran.
The convict was responsible for major missions, supported acts of terror and was present at the scene of IRGC Colonel Hassan Sayyad Khodaei’s targeted killing in Tehran on May 22, 2022 after two motorcyclists shot him five times before fleeing.
Langarneshin had openly confessed to his crimes during all stages of interrogation, prosecution and court proceedings.
