TEHRAN – Five spies have been apprehended at the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Ministry of Defense and Logistics of the Armed Forces and the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI).

A spokesperson for the Judiciary said two of the spies have received final conviction verdicts.

“In recent months, five Iranians who were spying for foreign intelligence services have been arrested … They were spying for Israel, Britain and Germany. Two of those spies have been convicted and sentenced to prison,” judiciary spokesman Gholamhossein Esmaili said in a weekly press conference.

“Masoud Mosahab, serving as the secretary general of the Iran-Austria Friendship Association, spied for Mossad (the Israeli secret service) and Germany’s secret service,” said the spokesperson.

“He has been sentenced to 10 years behind bars, and his verdict is final,” the spokesperson added.

“Shahram Shirkhani, who spied for Britain, has also received a final ruling. He tried to poison the minds of some managers and recruit elements for the UK’s secret service,” added the spokesperson.

“He had provided the enemy with information about our agreements in domains of the Central Bank, Melli Bank and the defense ministry,” said the spokesperson.

He also said that the country is facing an all-out war waged by the enemies’ media empire.

Esmaili said that today the Iranian society is facing two major problems which are sanctions and distortion (of facts).

Iran’s judiciary spokesman went on to explain further that just as the way the Islamic Iran is countering the economic war, it is also witnessing an all-out war waged by the enemies’ media empire by adhering to distortion as a tool against the Islamic system of Iran.

Esmaili added: “In fighting against media war and distortion by enemies, the importance of journalism becomes more and more apparent to us. “

Reacting to the closing down of a Persian daily, he said the Judiciary has not closed down any media outlet or arrested any journalist in the past year but he advised the media persons to stay away from the security issues because they are red lines and the Judiciary has to take action.

]]> TEHRAN (Iran News) – An Iranian spy connected to the US Central Intelligence Agency has been sentenced to death, according to the spokesman of the Judiciary Branch.

“Recently an individual named Seyyed Mahmoud Mousavi Majd, who had been connected with Mossad and CIA services and had collected and transmitted intelligence on the location of Martyr General Soleimani, has been given a death sentence by the Islamic Revolution Court,” Gholamhossein Esmaeeli said in his weekly presser on Tuesday.

He noted that the verdict has been verified by the Supreme Court of Iran and will be carried out in the near future.

At the direct order of US President Donald Trump, American terrorist forces launched airstrikes at Baghdad airport on Jan. 3, assassinating Lieutenant General Soleimani and deputy PMU Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis and their comrades. Iran vehemently condemned the attack, vowing to take harsh revenge, part of which came five days later by a missile strike at US’ al-Asad airbase in Iraq. Iran has also promised to follow up on the case in international courts.
