FBI Seeks Iranian Intelligence Officers In Levinson Disappearance

The Federal Bureau of Investigation seal is seen at FBI headquarters in Washington

The FBI has recently released 'seeking information posters' for two Iranian intelligence officers suspected of involvement in the disappearance of former FBI agent Robert Levinson. The US government has identified and sanctioned Mohammad Baseri and Ahmad Khazai in connection with Levinson's disappearance, which occurred in Iran in March 2007. This latest announcement underscores the US authorities' renewed commitment to resolving the case.

According to the FBI, Baseri and Khazai, who held positions in Iran's Ministry of Intelligence and Security, played roles in Levinson's abduction, detention, and likely death. The bureau has reiterated a reward of up to $5 million for information leading to Levinson's location, recovery, and return, while the State Department is offering a reward of up to $20 million for similar information.
