A member of Iran's security forces is suspected of involvement in the assassination of senior nuclear scientist Muhsin Fahrizadeh, the country's intelligence minister said yesterday (Monday).

"The person who made the first preparations for the assassination was a member of the armed forces," Mahmoud Alwi said in an interview with state television, without elaborating.

He said it was not possible for the intelligence ministry to "supervise the armed forces".



Fahrizadeh was traveling on a highway outside the capital Tehran with security on November 27, and died from gunfire.

According to Iranian authorities, Fahrizadeh served as deputy minister in the Ministry of Defense and acted on the issue of "nuclear defense."

The Revolutionary Guards said the assassination used a satellite-operated weapon with "artificial intelligence".

Iran accuses Israel of killing those it is believed to have headed its military nuclear program, which it denies, and has vowed revenge.

Israel has not officially responded to the allegations.



In December, a senior Iranian official said several suspects involved in the assassination had been arrested.

"Could the Zionists have done this without the cooperation, for example, of the US or other services? Certainly not," said Hussein Amir Abdullah, an adviser to the Iranian parliamentary speaker.
