Spanish Judge Santiago Pedraz has cited Vidal-Quadras to testify as a victim on April 15. Authorities from Paris and Amsterdam have submitted documentation to the Spanish National Court, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.elperiodico.com\/es\/politica\/20250407\/investigacion-iran-atentado-vidal-quadras-116066222\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">outlining the involvement<\/a> of various suspects tied to the assassination attempt.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In an interview, Dr. Vidal-Quadras directly accused the Iranian regime of orchestrating the attack, attributing his inclusion on Tehran\u2019s so-called \u201cblacklist\u201d to his outspoken support for the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI). He stated, \u201cI have no doubt it was the Iranian regime that ordered my assassination.\u201d Dr. Vidal-Quadras asserted that the regime is actively targeting dissidents abroad due to its insecurity over growing domestic opposition.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Maryam Rajavi&#39;s speech &#8211; Conference in the Italian Senate<br \/>On Tuesday, 5 March 2024, a number of Italian senators and deputies attended a conference on the situation of the Iranian regime and the role of the Iranian resistance.<\/p>\n<p>Mrs Maryam Rajavi appeared online and gave the\u2026 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/mHyg3jScgb\">pic.twitter.com\/mHyg3jScgb<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Firouz Mahvi (@FirouzMahvi) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/FirouzMahvi\/status\/1765305762270658887?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">March 6, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">According to <em>El Peri\u00f3dico<\/em>, multiple suspects linked to the attempt on Dr. Vidal-Quadras&#8217;s life have been apprehended.

Although the suspects were arrested, the French police have not conclusively linked them to the Iranian regime, describing them as hired criminals rather than direct operatives.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Italian authorities are also investigating links between these groups and the Iranian regime.
