Iran proceed to determine the fate of Imam Moussa Sadr: Zarif
Navideshahed- Iran’s Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif says that both Iran and Lebanon are concerned about the fate of Imam Moussa Sadr, who went missing in Libya more than three decades ago.
Iran will proceed with efforts to determine the fate of Imam Moussa Sadr and his companions, the minister stated.
Imam Musa Sadr and his two companions, Mohammed Yaqoub and Abbas Badreddin, were kidnapped in August 1978 during an official visit to the Libyan capital, Tripoli. They were scheduled to meet with officials from the government of slain Libyan dictator Muammar Gaddafi.
The Lebanese Shia cleric, who is of Iranian descent, is widely believed to have been abducted on the orders of former Libyan officials.
