Iranian academic assassinated in Tehran
TEHRAN, July 24 (MNA) -- An Iranian academic was killed in a terrorist attack in Tehran on Saturday afternoon.
The academic was identified as Dariush Rezaii, 45, a professor at Mohaqeq Ardebili Technical College, which is located in the northwestern city of Ardebil.
According to a police official, the terrorists, who were riding a motorcycle, attacked the professor on Bani Hashem Street in eastern Tehran.
The professor’s wife was also injured in the attack, the official stated.
The police have launched an investigation into the incident.
On November 29, 2010, two prominent physicists were targeted by terrorists in two separate bombings. Professor Majid Shahriari was killed and Professor Fereydoun Abbasi Davani was injured in the attacks. The two academics were both on their way to work at Shahid Beheshti University in northern Tehran when they were attacked. The police say that in both incidents, terrorists riding motorcycles attached magnetic bombs to the physicists’ cars.
Iranian elementary-particle physicist Massoud Ali-Mohammadi was also assassinated in a bomb attack in January 2010. Ali-Mohammadi had just left his home when a bomb hidden in a motorcycle was detonated.
