“Many things that end up” being meaningful, writes social scientist Joseph Grenny, “have come from conference workshops, articles, or online videos that began as a chore and ended with an insight. Shortly afterward, however, Amiri once again disappeared, with many observers speculating that Tehran officials were skeptical about parts of his story and had imprisoned him. His family had initially thought he was sentenced to 10 years in prison in Iran, Iranian spokesman Mr. Mohseni Ejeie said, according to USA Today however, Mohseni Ejeie added, Amiri had actually been sentenced to death.įollowing that disappearance, no information had been made public about his whereabouts or status, leaving many questions unanswered as to his tenure in the US in the first place.Ībout a year ago, I happened upon this statement about the Monitor in the Harvard Business Review – under the charming heading of “do things that don’t interest you”: Amiri said upon his arrival in Tehran, describing alleged US attempts to win information about Iran's nuclear program from him. Amiri returned to Tehran in July 2010, where he was met enthusiastically by his young son in a poignant scene broadcast by the Iranian government. Saying he had been kidnapped by US and Saudi intelligence officers and offered millions of dollars for information on Iran’s nuclear program, Mr. He had been offered $5 million for a chance to defect to the United States and receive a new identity, placed under protection, according to the Times. US officials said, however, that Amiri had been an informant for the CIA for years, beginning during his time in Iran, as The New York Times reported in 2010. In 2010, Amiri appeared at the Pakistani Embassy in Washington, D.C., which handles Iranian citizens' interests, and announced he wanted to return to Iran, ostensibly to be near his young son.

Rumors surfaced that he had been imprisoned, raising espionage-related suspicions, which were only further complicated by his sudden reappearance in a safe house within the United States. Amiri’s story was a strange one, after his mysterious disappearance during a pilgrimage to Saudi Arabia in 2009, at a time when numerous Iranian figures connected to the country's nuclear program had been killed – attacks that Iran blamed on the US and Israel. Amiri’s mother stated that his body was returned to the family with rope marks around his neck. "Shahram Amiri was hanged for revealing the country's top secrets to the enemy ," the Iranian spokesman, Gholamhossein Mohseni Ejeie said, as quoted by the Mizan Online news agency. But that isn't likely to stop the political speculation – and accusations. But Clinton's staff says the info in the emails was already widely reported in 2010.
The lack of information from Iran makes it difficult to correlate the timing of his treatment by Iranians and the FBI's release of Mrs.
His death has fueled fresh accusations from Donald Trump and an Arkansas senator that her use of a private email server was reckless and irresponsible. An Iranian judicial spokesperson confirmed Sunday that Shahram Amiri, a former Iranian nuclear scientist who was mentioned several times in email released from Hillary Clinton’s private computer server, was executed in Iran for espionage.
