Iran today executed four people, whom it accused of being “saboteurs” with links to Israel’s Mossad intelligence service.
The group “committed extensive actions against the country’s security under the guidance of Mossad”, Mizan said. They were executed in Iran’s north-west province of West Azerbaijan, the judiciary’s Mizan website reported.
The three men and one woman had been sentenced to death on charges of “moharebeh”, or “waging war against God”, and “corruption on Earth” through their “collaboration with the Zionist regime”.
The three men were identified as Vafa Hanareh, Aram Omari and Rahman Parhazo. The one woman was named as Nasim Namazi.
The four were charged with kidnapping Iranian security forces to extract intelligence and were also accused of setting fire to the cars and apartments of some agents.
Several others working with the same group were each sentenced to 10 years in jail, Mizan said, without providing additional details.
