Iran News


Public :

Referring to : http://cryptome.org/2013/12/ir-spy-uk-ca.htm

The news just surfaced but its not new. The guy code-named "8" is arrested by counterintelligence department of MOIS and charged with 3 claim counts.

A. Espionage and cooperation with Foreign governments.

B. Running a private network of operatives worldwide involved in "information offers and auctions and sells" with various unaligned elements.

C. Unsanctioned business with Organized Crime Groups in various areas including Nuclear data.

His case has not reached to Judicial system so no name no nothing of the person is aired. I suspect that changes soon. My source tells me the 8 had close relationship with Palestinian Islamic Jihad's office at Tehran, beyond his formal line of duty and done many operations in favor of the Palestinian group including the huge organized attacks to U.S banking and financial firms that causes serious damage while transferred funds belonging to Islamic Jihad during the chaos to protect their western-based ops against FBI's initiative to combat and dismantle organized cyber crimes.

8 had been providing intelligence and operational support directly tied to two top leaders of Palestinian and Lebanese Resistant movements named "Ali Atwa" and "Ramadan Abdullah Mohammad Shalah." Both are in the "FBI's TOP WANTED LIST" according to FBI's official website.

The initial deal between IR and U.S. that led to tackling 8's operations quite clearly is not going to be a hit-and-run, considering powerful elements within IR regime provide support for various organizations for who knows what reasons. If 8 is civilian (MOIS) the case should go to the "revolutionary court" and if he is in armed forces (IRGC - Army - MoD - Police) , the case must be tried at the Military Judiciary Organization according to Iranian law, confirmed by a native lawyer formerly working in Iran from where she had to flee.

Nany of the same websites belonging to IR are also forbidden to visit from U.S IP. Its ironic when the leaders of the countries trying to negotiate huge deals or shitting on them to change the history, they generally do not recognize the right of the other side to visit websites and read casual data, mostly bullshit for average netizens.
