Jaleh, a Tehran University student, was assassinated by members of the anti-Iran terrorist group, Mujahedin Khalq Organization (MKO), during an illegal rally in the Iranian capital on February 14.
The intelligence minister further pointed out that Jaleh's assassination was part of a pre-planned scheme by the MKO, adding “they had identified their victim in advance and had planned to assassinate him.”
