Of course, "an Israeli government official said: "We have no knowledge whatsoever regarding this case."
Whatever, lying scum.

"Iran sentences man to death in spy case" by Hashem Kalantari and Fredrik Dahl, Reuters | July 1, 2008
TEHRAN - An Iranian court sentenced an Iranian businessman to death yesterday on charges of being a spy for Israel who targeted the Islamic Republic's disputed nuclear program and its military, media said.
Iranian media identified Ali Ashtari as the manager of a company selling communications and security equipment to Iran's government and said he had been accused of "engaging in espionage for [Israel's] Mossad intelligence service."
Ashtari, 43, had confessed and asked for clemency after a two-day trial, the semi-official Fars News Agency said. Ashtari, who had been in financial trouble, said he had accepted a loan of $50,000 from Israeli agents, Fars said.
In Jerusalem, an Israeli government official said: "We have no knowledge whatsoever regarding this case."
Iran, which does not recognize Israel, has previously reported breaking up spy networks and accused the United States and "Zionists" of trying to destabilize the country.
Look at how the Zionist-controlled, pro-Israel, agenda-pushing, war-promoting AmeriKan MSM puts the quotations around "Zionists!"
As if they may not be a real group, or...??
I also object to the use of Jerusalem in referring to the Israeli government, because TEL-AVIV is the capital, NOT Jerusalem!
Typical ZIONIST SKEW in the AmeriKan MSM!
Fars quoted Ashtari as telling the court that three Israeli agents had presented themselves to him as foreign bank representatives looking for a commercial partnership.
Meetings with the agents took place in Thailand and Turkey and they provided him with a laptop computer for coded communication as well as satellite phones, the news agency said.--MORE--"
NO WONDER the TURKISH GENOCIDE of KURDS is IGNORED in the Zionist-controlled AmeriKan press!!!!
