    The Saturday report says Jalal Hajizavar was hanged last week in a prison near Tehran.

    The report said Hajzavar admitted in court that he was paid to spy for the CIA. The report said authorities also confiscated espionage equipment from his residence.

    It said the court sentenced Haizavar’s wife to 15 years in prison for her role in the espionage.
