"Massoud Ali Mohammadi was a lecturer in nuclear energy and no suspects have yet been arrested," Abbas Jafari Dolatabadi said, adding that he was climbing into his car when a nearby parked motorbike exploded.

Another Iranian news agency, Borna news, said Mohammadi was a "senior nuclear scientist of the country," quoting unnamed sources.
