Last Thursday afternoon, multiple FBI units with the assistance of the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Department swarmed a home on Irwin Keel. It occurred at the same location as the previous raid that resulted in the arrest of Ali Irsan, who was charged in the murder of Gelareh. Bagherzadeh was fatally shot near the Galleria in 2012.
Irsan’s wife and daughter were also arrested last week on federal fraud charges.
FBI Agents on the scene were seen tearing the roof off the home along the edges.
THE FBI is referring everything to their PIO in Houston.
Earlier this week the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office says it’s revisiting the death of Amjad Alidam. His father-in-law, Ali Irsan, claimed he shot Alidam in self-defense and a grand jury chose not to issue an indictment.
But the 57-year-old Irsan has since been charged in the 2012 killing of Gelareh Bagherzadeh, an Iranian student and activist. A federal prosecutor said during a May 29 court hearing that Irsan also is suspected of shooting another son-in-law 11 months after Bagherzadeh’s death. Irsan has not been charged in that killing.
Irsan, a naturalized U.S. citizen, is in federal custody on separate charges for his alleged involvement in a welfare and Social Security benefits scheme.
