Illegal Entrants Charged with Espionage in UK: Iranian Nationals

May 18, 2025 | International, Law, Security

The Metropolitan Police charged three Iranian nationals with spying for Tehran after a counter-terrorism probe.

  • Farhad Javadi Manesh, 44, arrived via small boat in 2019.
  • Mostafa Sepahvand, 39, entered in 2016 on a lorry due to alleged religious persecution.
  • Shapoor Qalehali Khani Noori, 55, encountered police in 2022.

All three entered the UK illegally and applied for asylum. The Crown Prosecution Service claims their conduct potentially aided Iranian intelligence.
