Two Iranian asylum seekers who reached Britain by lorry and small boat have been convicted at Woolwich Crown Court of helping Iran's Revolutionary Guards spy on targets in the UK. Mostafa Sepahvand, 41, and Farhad Javadi Manesh, 46, tracked two Iran International journalists and a lawyer, even using ChatGPT for extra research. The court heard Sepahvand intended a violent attack. A third man was cleared.
