Robert Levinson disappearance: FBI releases posters seeking info on two Iranian intelligence officers

The FBI has published posters on Tuesday asking for details about two senior Iranian intelligence officers related to the case of former FBI Special Agent Robert Levinson, who disappeared. The agency has promised to ensure that every Iranian official involved in his abduction will be held responsible.

Levinson went missing in 2007 while working as a private investigator during a trip to Iran’s Kish Island. It is believed that he was part of an unauthorized CIA operation and was declared dead in 2020.

The family of Levinson expressed their determination to seek answers about his disappearance, stating, “Even after all of this time that’s passed, almost 18 years, we will never give up. We want answers. We demand answers. Someone, somewhere, knows something and we demand that those responsible are held accountable for their actions. We are grateful to the FBI for its commitment to justice for our family and for its continued pursuit of finding out what happened to Robert Levinson.”

The FBI said the two Iranian officers in the posters – Mohammed Baseri and Ahmad Khazai — “allegedly acted in their capacity as officials of Iran’s Ministry of Intelligence and Security during Bob’s abduction, detention, and probable death.”

“According to the designation, Baseri has been involved in counterespionage activities inside and outside Iran, as well as sensitive investigations related to Iranian national security issues. He has worked directly with intelligence officials from other countries to harm U.S. interests,” the FBI said. “Khazai has led MOIS delegations to other countries to assess security situations.”
