Robert Levinson, Ex-FBI Agent Missing In Iran
Its been three weeks since former FBI agent, Robert Levinson went missing in Iran.
Relatives of a former FBI agent missing in Iran said they’re worried and doing “everything possible” to bring him home.
Robert Levinson, of Coral Springs, Fla., was last seen more than three weeks ago on the Iranian resort island of Kish. He is said to have been working on a film.
The State Department said Iran has agreed to look into Levinson’s disappearance. The U.S. and Iran have no diplomatic relations, but they do exchange information through neutral Swiss diplomats.
A spokesman for the U.S. Embassy in the United Arab Emirates is downplaying the case, saying there are “several such cases each year.”

“We miss him and love him very much. We are worried about him and want him home safe and sound as soon as possible,” his wife, Christine Levinson, and other relatives said in a statement to The Associated Press.
