Iran executes a man convicted of spying for the Israeli Mossad
- Iran executed Pedram Madani on May 28, 2024, in Tehran after convicting him of spying for Israel's Mossad intelligence agency.
- Madani was arrested in 2019 on charges of espionage and illegally amassing wealth linked to Israel amid ongoing covert Iran-Israel tensions.
- His death sentence had been overturned three times by the Supreme Court before being reinstated by other judicial branches, culminating in execution.
- Nargess Mohammadi disputed claims Madani had a fair trial, while IHR director Mahmood Amiry-Moghaddam stated, "These are death sentences without due process."
- The execution reflects Iran's harsh stance on alleged espionage, underscored by over 478 executions this year and increasing regional hostility toward Israel.
