Spanish right-wing politician Alejo Vidal-Quadras was shot in the face by an unknown assassin and is now speculating the Iranian government is behind the attack.
A police source with inside information on the investigation told The Associated Press that 76-year-old Vidal-Quadras, while recovering in the hospital, theorized the gunmen could be linked to Iran.

The Iranian foreign ministry previously placed sanctions on Vidal-Quadras due to his relationship with Iran's opposition-in-exile, the People’s Mujahedin of Iran.
