Ahmadinejad, not named in any indictment, has been identified by Western intelligence sources as a suspected planner in the killing of Kurdish dissidents in Western Europe in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Four Kurds were killed in IRGC strikes in Austria and Germany.

"There are investigators in EU [European Union] countries still interested in questioning him," a Western intelligence source said. "It could become a problem."

Will the mainstream media report this?
