The hasty and hysteric reactions to the execution of one of the well-known spies of the UK is another example of the wicked measures of the UK Government against the Iranian nation in the last two centuries, an Iranian official said.

Judiciary Spokesman Masoud Setayeshi addressed reporters on Tuesday that the British Government was expected to officially apologize the Iranian nation due to the scandal of spying on the Islamic Republic of Iran, but the reactions showed the institutionalized hatred of the UK government and their wicked acts among the Iranian people has its roots in deep and correct awareness about Britain.

The initial investigation, interrogation and proceeding of the charges of Ali-Reza Akbari were carried out at the Iranian judicial system very inclusively and precisely, so  the sentence indicates the judiciary’s sensitivity in dealing with the malice of the UK’s government, he noted.

On Saturday, January 14, Iran executed Akbari, who also held a British passport, for working with the British secret spying service MI6 against Iran’s national security.

The UK in response sanctioned the country’s prosecutor general.

Iran’s Foreign Ministry Spokesman Nasser Kanaani on Monday denounced the UK and some European countries over their reaction to Iran’s execution of its national who had been sentenced to death over spying for the United Kingdom.
