Trump Allies Bombard the Courts, Setting Stage for Post-Election Fight
The U.S. Department of State’s Rewards for Justice (RFJ) program, which is administered by the Diplomatic Security Service, is offering a reward of up to $20 million for information leading to the arrest or conviction of Shahram Poursafi, also known as Shahram Pursafi, Mehdi Rezayi, and Shahin Pourbakhsh.
Poursafi is a uniformed member of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) who is believed to be working on behalf of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps-Qods Force (IRGC- QF) to arrange the transnational murder-for-hire of former U.S. National Security Adviser John Bolton.
