      He was murdered by the regime. There are lot of IRGC agents in Canada trying to blend into the diaspora.

      In B.C. Supreme Court civil filings, Masjoody accused Soltani of „alignment“ with the Iranian regime, while other legal documents referring to his accusations say that Razavi had „loyalty“ to Iran’s intelligence services.

      The OP is behind a paywall, but including some exerpts from Canadian media coverage of this case

      [Global](https://globalnews.ca/news/11742384/masood-masjoody-murder-affidavit/):

      > An affidavit filed by Rosita Fatemi said her meeting with Arezou Soltani and Mehdi Ahmadzadeh Razavi took place in a parking lot in the Park Royal mall in West Vancouver, the heart of British Columbia’s Iranian community.

      > The document said she and **her two fellow founding directors of a B.C. non-profit society opposed to the Iranian regime** were there to discuss a lawsuit filed by another activist, Masood Masjoody, who had accused Soltani and Razavi of being aligned with the dictatorship.

      [CBC](https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/masood-masjoody-murder-accused-appear-vancouver-court-9.7142191):

      > Masjoody was **an outspoken critic of both Iran’s Islamic regime and the royalist faction of the diaspora community, which supports the exiled former crown prince Reza Pahlavi.** Pahlavi is now jockeying to lead the country should the Iranian administration topple as a result of current U.S. and Israel bombing campaigns.

      > **Pahlavi, too, was a target of legal action by Masjoody, who accused him of defamation.** In an affidavit, Pahlavi denied even knowing Masjoody, and denied involvement in any harassment, defamation or „conspiracy“ against him.

      So the case is complicated, and we should hold off speculation until an investigation clears up the motive behind this murder.
