DUBAI, April 22 (Reuters) – Iran executed a man convicted of spying for Israel’s intelligence service and passing sensitive information, the judiciary’s news outlet Mizan reported on Wednesday.
Mizan identified the man as Mehdi Farid, saying he had held a position in a civil defence unit within a sensitive organisation and had used his access to gather and transmit information to Israel’s Mossad.
His death sentence was upheld by the Supreme Court and carried out after legal procedures were completed, Mizan said.
