US charges Iran Guard captain over alleged role in 2022 death of American in Baghdad
|
[IsraelTimes] Mohammad Reza Nouri indicted for multiple terrorism- and murder-related offenses over killing of Stephen Troell; suspect being held in Iraq, where he has already been convicted
An Iranian officer blamed for the 2022 killing of an American in Iraq has been charged in New York with federal murder and terrorism crimes, authorities announced on Friday.
Federal authorities in New York City said Mohammad Reza Nouri, a captain in Iran’s paramilitary Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, has been charged in Manhattan federal court with multiple terrorism and murder-related charges that carry a potential penalty of life in prison. At least one charge carries the potential for a death sentence
...the barbaric practice of sentencing a murderer to be punished for as long as his/her/its victim is dead...
Nouri, 36, is in jug in Iraq, where he already has been convicted by an Iraqi court for his role in Stephen Troell’s killing, authorities said.
Troell, a native of Tennessee, was killed in his car by unknown assailants as he pulled up to the street where he lived with his family in Baghdad’s central Karrada district. He worked for Global English Institute, a language school in Baghdad’s Harthiya neighborhood, which operated under the auspices of Texas-based non-governmental organization Millennium Relief and Development Services.
It was a rare killing of a foreigner in Iraq, where security conditions have improved in recent years.
Acting US Attorney Edward Y. Kim said in a release that Nouri orchestrated the killing of Troell in Baghdad, Iraq, in November 2022.
"Nouri is alleged to have gathered intelligence on Troell’s daily routine and whereabouts, procured weapons and vehicles, and provided safe harbor to the operatives who carried out the sinister plot to brutally attack Troell in front of his wife," Kim said.
The prosecutor said the "Iranian regime is actively targeting US citizens, such as Troell, living in countries around the world for kidnapping and execution both to repress and silence dissidents critical of the regime and to take vengeance" for the death of Qassem Soleimani
 , an Iranian military leader killed by an American drone aircraft strike in January 2020.
In court papers, the US government asserted that Nouri celebrated the killing with a coconspirator on the day of the attack and left Iraq for Iran
 ...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both. They hate Jews Zionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol...
the night of the killing. It said shortly before leaving Baghdad, Nouri visited a religious site associated with mourning for Soleimani’s death.
US Attorney General Merrick Garland said in the release that the Justice Department "will not tolerate hard boyz and authoritarian regimes targeting and murdering Americans anywhere in the world."
