Iranian-affiliated media reported tonight (Thursday) that a senior Quds Force official, the organization's foreign arm, had been unofficially executed after he was suspected of passing information that led to the assassination of the organization's assassination cell commander, Hassan Hadayari, in the heart of Tehran last week.
According to reports, the executed commander is Ali Ismailazda, a senior commander in Cell 840 of the Quds Force, the force's assassination and kidnapping unit and the same unit in which Khadari served.
According to a report on the Iran International news site, which is affiliated with the opposition in Iran, he was found dead when he fell from the roof of a building in the capital Tehran.
According to a report on the news website, members of the Revolutionary Guards reported to his family that the reason for his death and that the senior commander was suicide.
The organization even told the grieving family that the suicide was due to "mental stress caused to the commander due to the distance from his wife" and provided a letter allegedly written by Ismailazda.
