Imam Musa al-Sadr, top foreign policy issue
TEHRAN, March 2 (MNA) – Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman Ramin Mehmanparast said in his weekly press conference that pursuing the fate of Imam Musa al-Sadr, an Iranian-born Shia cleric who vanished without a trace in Libya, is high on the agenda of the Foreign Ministry.
In August 1978, al-Sadr departed for Libya with two companions to meet officials of Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi’s government. They were never heard from again, and many believe they met with foul play at the hands of Gaddafi.
“We have mobilized all our resources to find out what has happened to him. We are hopeful that we would receive good news about his fate,” the spokesman said.
