Missing Man CIA
December 14, 2013 by staff
Missing Man CIA, Retired FBI agent Robert Levinson went missing while on an unauthorized intelligence-gathering trip in Iran in March 2007.
Initially, the US said Mr. Levinson had made the trip to Iran on personal business, but about eight months after his initial disappearance, suspicions arose in Washington that this story was false. Levinson was, in fact, on a reconnaissance trip for the Central Intelligence Agency. This important detail in the case was not made public, but the Associated Press has known it since 2010, when the news agency confirmed Levinson’s CIA ties.
Three different times the AP nearly reported the news of Levinson’s CIA connection – and the web of events leading up to his trip to Iran – but held back at the government’s request. Federal authorities said they were pursuing promising leads to get Levinson home.
However, in the nearly seven years since Levinson vanished, it is still unclear where he is, or if he is even alive. The AP decided to publish. Here’s a brief synopsis of the AP’s investigative report, which came out Thursday.
