Missing Iranian Nuclear scientist took refuge in Pakistan embassy

Iran's state radio said a missing Iranian nuclear scientist who Tehran says was kidnapped by the CIA, had taken refuge in Pakistan's embassy in Washington. "A few hours ago Shahram Amiri took refuge at Iran's interest section at the Pakistan embassy in Washington, wanting to return to Iran immediately," state radio said.

Iran and the United States cut diplomatic relations shortly after the country's 1979 Islamic revolution. The Pakistani embassy looks after Iran's interests in the United States. Amiri, a university researcher working for Iran's Atomic Energy Organisation, disappeared during a pilgrimage to Saudi Arabia a year ago and Tehran accused Riyadh of handing him over to the United States, which Saudi Arabia has denied.

Iran summoned the Swiss ambassador to Tehran earlier this month and handed over documents which it said showed Amiri had been kidnapped by the United States. In March, ABC news said Amiri had defected to the United States and was helping the CIA.

If true, this news is very funny.
That poor guy would have thought that taking refuge in Pakistani embassy in the US capital would save his life from the US officials. I think he does not know anything about Pakistani Political elites. Someone needs to tell him that Pakistani General and officials sell their own people from Pakistan capital ISB to the US government. They have a good busniess selling their own women and children. And you are dreaming about taking refuge in Pakistani Embsaay in WASHINGTON...lolz. You poor guy !!

I think it's bigger than that. In my opinion Iran was right that CIA kidnapped their scientist, how on earth would he be able to travel to US without US knowledge or approval, either he was kidnapped or he changed sides. Going to Pakistani embassy for refugee is a different matter, he could have just disappeared in US and changed his identity, I am sure it's not a big deal for US they could have done that but something is cooking, just got to wait and see, all intelligence dramas.
