Rumours of espionage began to swirl after the death of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah in Israel’s October 4 strike on a bunker in Beirut.

His disappearance sparked claims that he is the traitor behind Israel’s incredible cull of Hezbollah’s top brass.

Qaani has not been heard of – even by his family – since the blitz on Hezbollah top brass.

He was believed to have died alongside Hezbollah heir apparent Hashem Saffeieddine, 60, in the bunker blast.

But sources in Lebanon, Iraq and Iran have since revealed Qaani was not at the meeting.

And he dodged another strike a week earlier in which Hezbollah leader Nasrallah was blitzed.

His vanishing act sparked consternation across Iran’s panicked military as rumours spread that he had turned on the evil Islamist regime.

Qaani leads Iran‘s powerful Revolutionary Guard’s elite Quds Force and has been confirmed to be “alive and in good health” by the regime.

He is also being probed over the September 27 bunker buster assassination of Nasrallah, 64.

Nasrallah’s death sparked a desperate hunt for Israel’s mole by the Guard Corps – whose investigators are now said to suspect their own leader.

Multiple sources said that Qaani and his team were under lockdown as interrogators demand answers.
