Alireza Zarrab Suspected of Transferring $1.5 Million for Assassination of Saudi Diplomat in the US.

The Turkish newspaper "TODAYS ZAMAN" has published an article about the Iranian businessman Alireza Zarrab, who has been arrested following the recent financial scandal in Turkey. The article explores different parts of a report, which has been made by the Turkish National Intelligence Organization (MIT) in this matter. According to this report, MIT claims that Alireza Zarrab is the one, who has transferred money to Manssor Arabsiar some three years ago for assassination of Saudi Diplomat in the US.

The article, furthermore, criticizes Receb Erdogan by posing some important questions as follows. Is Alireza Zarrab a membr of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps or Iran's Quds Force? Has Receb Erdogan discussed this important issue with the US authority or not?

It would be interesting to know that Saudi Arabia has received any information on this matter or not?
