Jurist Iran announces plans to execute alleged CIA spy

[Dadparvar]

The Iran Judiciary Spokesperson on Tuesday announced Iran’s plans to execute an alleged CIA spy.

The spokesperson identified the spy as Amir Rahimpour, an Iranian national. Iran alleges that Rahimpour “received big sums of money as his wage and tried to provide the US intelligence service with nuclear information.” The spokesperson reported that the Supreme Court of Iran confirmed Rahimpour’s death sentence.

The spokesperson boasted the effects of executing alleged spies on US intelligence:

Regarding internal activities and espionage, [our] alertness and influence have luckily led to the US’s and other countries’, especially Israeli’s, spies to be identified, arrested, sentenced, and punished. I announced before, in some sessions, how many spies we arrested, especially [those arrested] last year which has made a strong impact on the US’s intelligence service. But what I am saying today is that in addition to its intelligence influence, the establishment takes firm measures.

Iran claimed last July to have arrested 17 Iranian nationals who were spying for the US. US President Donald Trump responded to the July claims by deeming the report “totally false” and “more lies and propaganda.”
