They murder a nuclear scientist

An Iranian nuclear scientist died yesterday in Tehran in an assault with car bomb attributed by the Iranian regime to Israel and United States, in a tense context between Western countries and the Islamic Republic over its nuclear program. The White House said that "it has nothing to do" with the murder of the scientist. The Iranian Vice President Mohammad Reza Rahimi said on State television that the death of Mostafa Ahmadi Roshan, who worked at the (Center) Natanz uranium enrichment plant, will not prevent Iran to make "progress" in their activities nuclear.

Iranian officials pointed out that the used method - two motorcyclists who attach a bomb lapa to a vehicle - is similar to the employee against other three Iranian scientists from January 2010, two of whom were killed and another, the current head of the Iranian Atomic Energy Organization, survived.

In the Iranian Parliament, the news was received at the u000acry of "Death to Israel" and "death to United States".

The attack occurred in the morning, close to the Tabatabai Alameh University, in the East of the Iranian capital. Ahmadi Roshan, aged 32, died on the spot and his bodyguard died later, according to Fars and ILNA agencies. The third occupant of the vehicle is hospitalized.

The scientist was the Deputy Director for trade-related matters of the plant in Natanz, according to the website of the Sharif University.
