According to Iranian judiciary's Mizan News Agency, Akbari who had dual nationalities of Iranian and British was sentenced to death due to acting against national security and spying for the MI6 in exchange for receiving 1.805 million euros, 265k British pounds, and 50k US dollars.
He had a long-term connection with intelligence officers in Iran and other countries.
Akbari started his so-called research and trade activities in the framework of a private company following retirement in 2002.
He cooperated with research institutes in London, assisting the institutes to collect information, while their directors were intelligence officers.
The spy met with an MI6 officer nicknamed Mark in Austria. He also held talks with Richard Dalton, the former British ambassador to Iran.
During his meetings with MI6 officers, he provided them with data on 178 Iranian figures, including some nuclear scientists, such as Mohsen Fakhrizadeh, who was assassinated near Tehran on November 27, 2020, by Israeli terrorists.
Iran’s Supreme Court upheld the verdict of the death penalty for the spy based on substantiated evidence.
