How the Family of Iran’s Most Feared Agent Ended Up in California

The aftermath of Emami's death was equally harrowing for his family, particularly his wife, Fahimeh Dori Nogorani. In the early 2000s, a disturbing video was leaked showing the interrogation of Nogorani and other intelligence agents. The footage revealed that she was subjected to intense psychological and physical torture by her husband’s former colleagues, who were attempting to force her to confess to bizarre allegations of espionage and moral corruption. The video served as a grim reminder of the internal brutality within the intelligence ministry, showing that even the families of its highest-ranking members were not safe from its machinery.
