Iran's judiciary spokesman Asgar Jahangir demanded that Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi disclose the information he claims to have about a 'security breach' that enabled the attack that killed Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei. Jahangir questioned how Araghchi knows of the breach and said that if Araghchi possesses intelligence, he must share it with security and judicial bodies. Araghchi had earlier stated that the breach not only enabled the attack but continues to affect decision-making in Iran.
Iran's judiciary has entered the public debate over the intelligence breach that led to the death of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei. On Monday, judiciary spokesman Asgar Jahangir demanded that Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi disclose the information he claims to possess about the security lapse.
Jahangir questioned the source of Araghchi's knowledge, stating that if the foreign minister has concrete intelligence, he must transfer it to the appropriate security, intelligence, and judicial authorities. "Espionage and infiltration cases will never reach zero," Jahangir said, according to a report, but added that this does not negate the work of security bodies. He also warned that if Araghchi's remarks require legal investigation, the prosecution would take necessary steps.
The demand comes after Araghchi stated in recent days that the security breach that allowed the attack on Khamenei's compound remains unresolved and continues to influence decision-making in Tehran. The foreign minister's comments have sparked a rare public dispute within the Iranian regime, with the judiciary now calling for transparency.
As The Zioneer reported earlier, Araghchi had detailed the attack on Khamenei's compound, acknowledging that the enemy knew of meetings held at the Supreme Leader's compound, indicating an intelligence breach that apparently remains unresolved. The exchange highlights growing internal tensions over accountability for the security failure that led to the death of the Supreme Leader.
