A UK jury on Thursday found two Iranian men guilty of spying for Iran’s intelligence service, as a chief prosecutor said it showed Tehran’s willingness to use “proxies” to target the regime’s critics abroad.
Mostafa Sepahvand, 41, and Farhad Manesh, 46, carried out surveillance and reconnaissance on targets that included two journalists, a lawyer and a media production professional between August 2024 and March last year, with Sepahvand also prepared to commit physical attacks.
