The other three agents of the Iranian regime, Nasimeh Naami, Mehrdad Arefani, and Amir Saadouni, were sentenced to 18, 17, and 15 years in prison, respectively. Their Belgian citizenship was also revoked. Assadi along with his co-conspirators attempted to bomb the annual \u201cFree Iran\u201d gathering of the NCRI in 2018 in Paris. During a global conference simultaneous with Assadi\u2019s court decision, the NCRI\u2019s President-elect Mrs. Maryam Rajavi stated that the conviction of the clerical regime\u2019s diplomat and his intelligence agents was the conviction of the regime in its entirety, a momentous triumph for the Iranian people and Resistance, a heavy political and diplomatic defeat to the Iranian regime, and an irreparable blow to its strategy of exporting and spreading terrorism.
