The killing of Iranian scientist and professor Mostafa Ahmadi Roshan in early 2012 in Tehran, sparked a considerable amount of speculation that Israeli intelligence was responsible for the event.

As has always been the country’s policy, Israel did not confirm or deny it’s involvement, but one thing now seems clear, Roshan – the scientist who was working at one of Iran’s nuclear enrichment facilities – did not like Israel.

“Mostafa’s ultimate goal was the annihilation of Israel,” Roshan’s widow told an Iranian news outlet.

“The wife of Martyr Mostafa Ahmadi Roshan Behdast, who was assassinated by Mossad agents in Tehran in January, reiterated on Tuesday that her husband sought the annihilation of the Zionist regime wholeheartedly,” reads part of the story from FNA.
