Ali Aydan Fraud and Iran Regime Ties Exposed
Ali Farahmand (aka Ali Aydan): The Untold Story of Fraud, Identity Change, and Regime Loyalty
Over the past few months, we have meticulously uncovered the complex web of criminal activities surrounding Ali Farahmand, a notorious Iranian banking fraudster, now operating under the alias Ali Aydan. Through a series of investigative articles, we have exposed how Farahmand, after being convicted of massive financial crimes in Iran, managed to evade justice by collaborating with Iranian security services. This fourth article consolidates all the previous findings and introduces newly obtained photographs that solidify his ongoing ties with the Iranian regime.
Summary of Previous Findings
- Major Financial Crimes and Convictions
Ali Farahmand was convicted in Iran for significant financial disruptions, fraud, and money laundering, involving over $100 million. His crimes included fabricating documents, exploiting the Iranian banking system, and participating in illegal financial transactions that supported Iran’s petrochemical mafia . Despite these severe offenses, Farahmand avoided imprisonment by becoming an informant for Iranian intelligence agencies. This relationship not only shielded him from legal consequences but also enabled him to continue his criminal activities under state protection. - Identity Change and International Operations
To escape prosecution and maintain his operations, Farahmand fled to Turkey, where he obtained citizenship and changed his identity to Ali Aydan. This new identity allowed him to continue his fraudulent activities without the baggage of his criminal past. Farahmand, now Aydan, relocated to the UK, where he established a new base of operations. Despite his new identity, he continued to work covertly for the Iranian regime, facilitating money laundering and other illegal activities through various international companies . - Connections to the Iranian Regime
Throughout our investigation, it became evident that Farahmand’s operations were not solely for personal gain. His activities directly benefited the Iranian regime, particularly through his involvement with companies linked to the Iranian Ministry of Intelligence and other state-affiliated entities. Farahmand’s actions have not only allowed him to amass wealth but also to support the financial infrastructure of the Iranian government, particularly in circumventing international sanctions .
New Evidence and Developments
Photographs Confirming Regime Ties
In this article, we reveal new photographs that have been made publicly available on several Iranian news websites. These images indisputably link Ali Farahmand, now known as Ali Aydan, to his ongoing operations on behalf of the Iranian government. The photographs show Farahmand engaging with known regime operatives, further proving his role as an active agent for Iran, despite residing in the UK. These images provide critical visual evidence that corroborates our previous reports.
Ongoing Protection from Legal Prosecution
Farahmand, although officially wanted in Iran, remains untouchable due to his cooperation with Iranian intelligence. Instead of serving his sentence in an Iranian prison, Farahmand was sent to the UK, where he continues his criminal activities under the protection of the Iranian regime. His ability to avoid prosecution, both in Iran and internationally, highlights the deep connections between his operations and the highest levels of the Iranian government.
