Victims were also targeted in the United Arab Emirates, an indictment in Manhattan federal court alleges.
The Iranian spies had allegedly hired private investigators in the UK under ‘false pretenses’ to conduct surveillance on an Iranian expatriate journalist and political commentator, who has not been named, from at least September 2020, according to court documents.
