I find it hard to believe that a man who admittedly killed one man then is questioned in two other murders, didn't have SOME hand in the latter two deaths.

Of course, that's just me.

Even my pea brain can figure out there just MAY be a connection between the three. Apparently the guy just kills whoever he doesn't want his kids hanging around with.
 
ARREST!!!

Ali Mahwood-Awad Irsan, 56, has been charged in the January 15, 2012 death of Gelareh Bagherzadeh, 30.

Bagherzadeh was reportedly an activist against the Iranian government, and a particular supporter of women's rights. The station reports that she had argued about the subject with Irsan.

Irsan's neighbor, William Orr, told KHOU that the FBI had searched Irsan's property soon after the murder because Orr had told them he saw the family bury something in the backyard at three in the morning.

Irsan was reportedly booked into jail and no bail amount has been set.

Investigators did not reveal a motive for the killing, but those close to Bagherzadeh told the Houston Chronicle that Irsan, a devout Muslim, suspected the Christian convert had influenced his daughter, Nesreen, to drift apart from her family.

Irsan was allegedly angry that his Jordanian-American daughter married 28-year-old Coty Beavers without his approval.

And 11 months after Bagherzadeh — a molecular genetic technology student at the University of Texas — was killed, Coty Beavers was shot and killed inside the Harris County apartment that he shared with his wife.

No arrests had been made in that killing, but relatives say they suspect the two deaths were connected.

The father dodged criminal charges for shooting 29-year-old Amjad Alidam — the husband of Irsan’s daughter Nasemah — in September 1999, after Irsan argued he fired in self-defense.

holy crap - this creep has murdered three times!
 
YES!! I'm so glad this creep was finally arrested. How ironic that he killed Gelareh because he felt SHE was a bad influence on his daughter, with her disgusting American ways. Because HE was such a pillar of society, yes? Defrauding the US governement for decades in social security frauds, even putting out mailboxes for addresses that didn't exist to collect his fraudelent checks! Murdering whoever he felt like!

So glad this scum is off the streets.
 
Solving this murder helped reveal a massive empire of government fraud, suspicious real estate deals and hidden money, gems and weapons stretching back two decades, according to federal authorities.

Ali Mohmood Awad Irsan was charged last month in the 2012 fatal shooting of Gelareh Bagherzadeh, an Iranian Christian activist, and is suspected of killing his daughter’s husband, Coty Beavers, months later in his apartment. Prosecutors are also taking a new look at the 1999 shooting death of another of Irsan's sons-in-law, a case originally found to be self-defense.

Accused shooter’s daughter says scene staged to look like self-defense

But Irsan’s daughter, Nesreen, recently told police that shooting was staged.

According to a search warrant obtained by the KHOU 11 News I-Team, Nesreen Irsan told investigators that her father lured Alidam to the family’s home under false pretenses and then shot Alidam with a shotgun.

Nesreen Irsan said her father then fired a pistol into the wall and placed the gun near Alidam’s body, “to make it appear that he threatened and fired at Irsan first.”

Alidam’s best friend says he’s always suspected the shooting was set up by Irsan.

“I never seen him carry (a) gun”, said Mustafa Salih, a friend of the deceased

The alleged perp in this particular murder is Ali Irsan. This is going to be one difficult case to follow. Just cruising around on Google I found this article from a while back. Seventeen children!?:eek:

The second below link is more current, June 17, 2014. His sons attempting to sneak drugs to him in jail? :confused:

Good grief!

Neighbors react to Irsan’s arrest: ‘I heard explosions before'

MONTGOMERY COUNTY, Texas -- Neighbors living next to the murder suspect on Irwin Keel Lane say the family has been living there for 20 years with their 17 children or so, but they have their fair share of problems.

“They throw rocks at my dog, I told them to quit and then he declared war with me. you want war, you got war” said Mary Watson, a neighbor.

They told us they knew something was off with the family.

“I heard explosions before,” said neighbor Thomas Moore.

“They always have these bomb sounding things going off, fire crackers, and shootings,” said Watson.

Sons of man accused of killing Iranian medical student facing charges

The brazen killing of an outspoken young Iranian activist as she pulled into her parents' Galleria-area townhome complex languished for two years even as Crime Stoppers offered $200,000, its largest reward in history, for information leading to an arrest...

Now, in the latest twist in a bizarre case... the district attorney's office said it has dismissed the murder charges against Irsan but would seek more charges soon. Meanwhile the 57-year-old remains in solitary confinement on the fraud charges for which, in any normal case, he'd long ago have walked out on bond...

In February, Irsan's 21-year-old son, Nasim, was arrested after allegedly dragging a donkey behind a pickup along a stretch of Old Houston Road in Montgomery County. He was charged with cruelty to livestock animals and remains in jail in lieu of $60,000 bail.

You have to think that the government has a lot of information that we aren't privy to in this case. There's a reason that they are holding this family.
 
Other fresh developments include charges for Irsan’s son and Irsan’s daughter.

Nasim Irsan, 21, is charged with murder.

Nadia Irsan, 30 is charged with stalking.

Ali Irsan, a Jordanian national who was living in Montgomery County, is accused of playing a role in the 2012 murder of graduate student Bagherzadeh. Detectives said Irsan, a conservative Muslim, was angry that Bagherzadeh turned his daughter, Nesreen, from Islam to Christianity.

The DA's Office is scheduled to hold a press conference to share the new information.

This is another daughter... not one that was married to either victim.
Just wanted to clarify that since I was confused, I went back and checked.
So one of his OTHER daughters helped him commit one of these murders? :dunno:

Police are reporting that her ex-boyfriend is an ear-witness, has cooperated fully, and is not a suspect. I know that doesn't mean he can't possibly be involved, but this one is looking like it may have been an assassination due to her activism for Iranian women's rights. MOO

An assassination because she was an activist for Iranian women's rights? Seriously?

I do not think so. Iranian women have a strong voice in Iran, they vote, they drive, they are very well educated, they hold political positions and wield political power; this was NOT some weird assassination by the "Regime" to target an Iranian ex-patriot in living in Texas.

Sheesh if they wanted to target upstart hard headed females they would start in Iran, not Texas!

It was one female's rights who was already in US that allegedly got this student killed.

"Investigators say Mr Irsan was enraged that Ms Begherzadeh, a Christian convert, had helped his daughter abandon his stern Islamic teachings and marry Mr Beavers, also a Christian."

So it had nothing to do with the Iranian regime, it involved a small group of individuals.

Odd, second big story regarding Sharia law in Texas.
