Dear All,

There is a wrong refrence about Dr. Mohsen Aminzadeh here which is just a mistake because of similarity of names. Dr. Mohsen Aminzadeh who has been a diplomat (Deputy Foreign Minister) from 1997 to 2005 was not working in foreign ministry in 1987 and he has never been in Geneva Airport.

The news below is related to another Mohsen Aminzadeh who has never been a diplomat and he is an emloyee of Foreign Ministry of Iran.

Please pay attention to this mistake which is just because of similarity of names.

"Aminzadeh served as an attaché to the Iranian mission in France in the late 1980s, and was at the center of a diplomatic incident in July 1987, when Iran accused French customs agents at the Geneva Airport of attacking him.[2] The Iranian mission called reporters to witness him being taken on a stretcher from the hospital to a plane on which he would return to Tehran, during which he appeared to be suffering convulsions; a Swiss doctor, however, described him as in good health and dismissed the exit as "a comedy".[3]
