maybe this tragic incident will serve as a warning to these 'western' countries
who just give a blank approval to anyone who claims he/she is an opponent
of the 'iranian regime'.in particular be aware of all the mek members who get support from
ex-us officials like guiliani,bolton,freeh,etc...and are roaming arorund freely anywhere
in the 'western' world.why can't they extradite the rajavis to iran before they initiate
a big terrorist event?
[h=1]Sydney siege: Iran says it 'requested extradition' of gunman Man Haron Monis in 2000[/h]
Iranian police had requested the extradition of
Man Haron Monis, the gunman who was shot dead in the Martin Place siege, 14 years ago but Australian authorities would not hand him over, Iran's police chief has claimed in comments to reporters.
Monis had committed a number of "violent" and fraud-related offences before he fled the country "in disguise" in 1996, according to Iran's chief of police, General Ismail Ahmadi Moghaddam.
At the time, Monis went by the name of Mohammad Hassan Manteqi. He fled first to Malaysia in 1996 and then to Australia, General Moghaddam claimed.
Monis applied for, and was in 2001 granted, refugee status in Australia.
General Moghaddam told the Iranian
Mehr News Agency that Monis posed as a cleric at the time to gain political asylum. Earlier Monis had been the manager of a travel agency in Iran, authorities there said.
General Moghaddam said Iranian police spent four years collecting evidence against Monis, before seeking his extradition to Iran from Australia.
But that request was knocked back, General Moghaddam claimed.
"It lasted four years to collect evidence on Manteqi's [Monis'] identification documents and we reported this to the Australian police but since Australia has no extradition treaty with Iran, they didn't extradite him," General Moghaddam told the Mehr News Agency.
