Iran made a man convinced from espionage for Israel and accused of playing a key role in the assassination of an officer of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Choir, the State Misan operated.
Mohsen Langarnessin was accused of working with the Israeli intelligence service Mossad for more than two years after he was hired and trained in 2020, Mizan said, adding that Langarnessin was executed early Wednesday morning.
The Iranian Group for Human Rights, based in Oslo, said Langarneshin was convicted after being forced to confess under the torture and his parents held Vigil outside of prison since Tuesday in the hope that they could save him from execution.
In February, the IHR informed that Langarnesshin was arrested in July 2023 and was included in a lonely prison two months ago after being transferred from Tehran prison to the provincial retention center on the outskirts of the city.
The announcement comes weeks after Iran and the US have launched indirect conversations on the nuclear program of the Islamic Republic, and since Israel continues to bomb Gaza in its war against Tehran supported by Hamas, the US and many of its allies marked with a terrorist organization.
Langarnessin was accused of being present when Colonel Irgc Hassan Sayyad Kodhodai, a higher officer heavily involved in Iranian Syrian operations, was shot outside his home in Tehran in 2022.
Mizan did not say when Langarneshin was arrested or provided details of evidence submitted in his court. He was also accused of meeting with Mossad officers in Georgia and Nepal and transferring funds for their representation to other “workers” inside Iran.
Langarness’s arrests and the sentence were not published by the Iranian authorities, but a number of Iranian groups in the field of human rights based abroad watched his case and quoted his family.
Mizan did not provide any details of his legal representation and only added that his sentence was made “after complete legal proceedings and the final approval of the judgment”.
