Iran Denies Reports of Mojtaba Khamenei Owning London Apartments Near Israeli Embassy
The Iranian Embassy in India has denied British media reports, including from The Sunday Times, claiming that Mojtaba Khamenei, Iran's Supreme Leader, owns two luxury apartments in London near the Israeli embassy. The embassy called these claims baseless and lacking credible evidence, emphasizing that Khamenei owns no property inside or outside Iran and leads a simple lifestyle. British reports said the apartments were acquired via intermediaries in 2014 and 2016 and recently linked to Khamenei, but the embassy rejected these assertions as attempts to misrepresent his character.
