A US court ordered Iran to pay billions of dollars in compensation to the relatives of the victims of the September 11 attacks, The Hill reports, citing court documents.
According to the court decision, the Islamic Republic of Iran, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and the Central Bank of Iran were found guilty of involvement in the death of 1,008 people. In this regard, the Iranian authorities must pay compensation to the relatives of the victims.
The amount of compensation varies depending on the degree of relationship: $ 12.5 million for the spouses of the deceased, $ 8.5 million for parents and children, $ 4.25 million for brothers and sisters.
Everything would be fine, but with all this …
… a special commission to investigate the September 11 attacks had not previously found direct evidence of Iran's involvement in the attacks, a court in New York considered sufficient to make a decision the arguments that Tehran allegedly provided material assistance to the al-Qaeda terrorist group *. Does it remind you of anything? Highly Likely is the new queen of proof.
After September 11, they found the passports of Saudi Arabia (but this is an ally, and they will not give anything), then they attacked Afghanistan and killed Osama bin Laden (in Pakistan). But they demand money from Iran …
It would seem why all this? Absurd! But no. Everything is calculated. Tehran is unlikely to pay the sums indicated by the American court. Nevertheless, the court's decision will allow the relatives of the victims to claim payments from the US seized accounts of Iranian citizens and companies.
This is actually the goal itself.
