The Canadian Parliament has recently discussed the conditions of the Iranian regime’s former National Bank chief Mahmoud Reza Khavari who recently fled Iran. Canadian MPs went on to criticize government officials on the method of how Khavari entered Canada.
One Canadian senator said the important aspect of this issue is to find out how this high ranking National Bank official of the Iranian regime found refuge in Canada?
In response to this question, a Canadian federal government intelligence and security official said his agency investigates any danger threatening Canada’s security.
On the other hand, The Globe and Mail daily wrote Khavari’s family has another $660,000 house in Hollywood Road in Toronto’s North York region registered under the name of Khavari’s wife. While Canadian officials are busy weighing the cancellation of Mahmoud Reza Khavari’s citizenship and his extradition to Iran, he and his wife have transferred their $3 million Toronto villa to their daughter.
This Canadian daily added a former US Treasury Department official says the Canadian government must block Khavari’s assets in Canada because he was the director of a bank enlisted in the international sanctions blacklist.
