IRANIAN CYBER WARFARE COMMANDER SHOT DEAD IN SUSPECTED ASSASSINATION
11:21 ~U 03.10.13
Mojtaba Ahmadi, who served as commander of the Cyber War Headquarters,
was found dead in a wooded area near the town of Karaj, north-west
of the capital, Tehran, The Telegraph reports.
Five Iranian nuclear scientists and the head of the country's ballistic
missile program have been killed since 2007. The regime has accused
Israel's external intelligence agency, the Mossad, of carrying out
these assassinations.
Ahmadi was last seen leaving his home for work on Saturday. He was
later found with two bullets in the heart, according to Alborz,
a website linked to the Revolutionary Guard Corps. "I could see two
bullet wounds on his body and the extent of his injuries indicated
that he had been assassinated from a close range with a pistol,"
an eyewitness told the website.
The commander of the local police said that two people on a motorbike
had been involved in the assassination.
The Facebook page of the officers of the Cyber War Headquarters
confirmed that Ahmadi had been one of their commanders and posted
messages of condolence. But Alborz users warned that the openly
accessible book of condolence could harm Iran's national security.
"Stop giving more information about him. The counter-revolutionaries
will take advantage of his murder," said one post. "It sounds like
a hit job for a security officer of this importance".
