The head of Iran´s Atomic Energy Organization has exposed the depth of British spying apparatus´s involvement in assassination plots against Iranian nuclear scientists.
Fereydoun Abbasi-Davani told a news conference on the sidelines of the International Atomic Energy Agency´s (IAEA) General Assembly in Vienna how British spies shadowed him around the world to collect information prior to a failed assassination attempt against him last year.
The IAEO chief said that the Zionist regime´s agents carried out the terror plot with the help of the US and UK spying agencies, which he stressed “even pursued me to the back door of my university office”.
Abbasi-Davani referred to his personal experience as a victim of terror, saying how he survived the terrorist attack last year, when one of his colleagues, Professor Majid Shahriari was martyred by terrorists.
Unidentified terrorists detonated bombs attached to the cars of university professors Majid Shahriari and Abbasi-Davani on 29 November 2010. Professor Shahriari was martyred instantly, but Abbasi-Davani and his wife survived the terror plot with minor wounds.
"Six years ago the intelligence service of the UK began collecting information and data regarding my past, my family, the number of [my] children," Abbasi-Davani told the news conference.
"The agents of MI6 of England in different and various places, including the airport in France, in scientific places in Poland, Italy, Netherlands, Malaysia ... repeatedly followed and looked for information regarding myself", he said.
They had even "checked until the back door of my room in the university to see whether I have a bodyguard or not," the IAEO chief added.
Abbasi-Davani referred to the assassination of intellectuals and scientists as a monstrous act, to which every individual who remains silent could be considered as a co-perpetrator of the crime.
End.
