The prosecutor’s office in the northwestern city of Ardabil said the suspect comes from a southern province of Iran but was arrested in Ardabil.
The prosecutor’s office said the detainee was in touch with the high-ranking agents of the Zionist regime’s intelligence agency, Mossad, via social media platforms and was gathering information for the Zionist entity under the guise of proof-reading activity.
The suspect was caught while trying to hide in Ardabil province and ultimately fleeing Iran.
