TEHRAN — The wife of a missing former FBI agent said Saturday she has been unable to find out what happened to her husband despite visiting the Iranian island where he was last seen.
The Iranian government reiterated that it had no information about Robert Levinson’s whereabouts. The 59-year-old was last seen March 8 on Kish, where he was investigating a cigarette smuggling for a client of his security firm.
Christine Levinson said she still believes her husband is in Iran because his name has not shown up on any flight manifests of planes leaving the country.
