Two Iranian men have been indicted by the federal government for spying on behalf of Tehran, activities that included photographing people attending an anti-Iran rally in New York City, the Justice Department said.

Ahmadreza Mohammadi-Doostdar, 38, a dual US-Iranian citizen, and Majid Ghorbani, 59, an Iranian citizen and resident of California, allegedly conducted surveillance on Israeli and Jewish facilities and collected information about American citizens who are members of the group Mujahideen-e Khalq, which seeks the overthrow of the Iranian government, an indictment unsealed Monday says.

They were arrested Aug. 9.

Ghorbani attended an MEK rally in New York in September 2017 and photographed people protesting against the regime and identified them in handwritten notes.

He later turned that information and 28 photos over to Doostdar during a meeting in December in Los Angeles and was paid $2,000 in cash, the indictment says.

Those documents were discovered in Doostdar’s luggage later that month at a US airport as he tried to return to Iran.

In July 2017, Doostdar traveled to Chicago, where he took photos of the security features of the Rohr Chabad House.

Ghorbani told Doostdar that he was traveling to Iran last March to conduct an “in-person briefing.”

He also attended a MEK-affiliated 2018 Iran Freedom Convention for Human Rights in Washington in May and took photographs of speakers and people attending.

Later that month, Doostdar called Ghorbani to discuss how he could use secretive measures to provide that information to Iran.
