Witt allegedly began working with Iran in 2013 and may still be supporting Iranian intelligence operations, with authorities locating potential ties to recruitment at New Horizon Organization conferences.

The FBI has issued a $200,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and prosecution of Monica Witt, a former U.S. Air Force intelligence specialist and FBI agent indicted in 2019 on espionage charges for allegedly transmitting national defense information to Iran.

The case is being treated as breaking news with ongoing updates expected.

The bounty underscores a persistent threat and ongoing investigative efforts, noting Witt has been a fugitive longer than she was a government contractor.

She served in the Air Force from 1997 to 2008 and, as a government contractor afterward, had access to highly sensitive information including the true identities of undercover personnel.

The 2019 indictment also charged four Iranians with conspiracy and aggravated identity theft for assisting Witt in gathering information on her former U.S. government colleagues.

Her current whereabouts remain unclear, with reports suggesting she may be outside the United States or without clear legal representation, and limited information about her family in the U.S.

She remains at large, with indications she is residing in Iran and deeply integrated, prompting tips from people with direct access to her world.

Witt was born in Texas, enlisted in the Air Force in 1997 as a Persian language specialist, and remained linked to Air Force intelligence through at least 2010.

Authorities are soliciting tips via 1-800-CALL-FBI, local FBI offices, American embassies, or tips.fbi.gov, reaffirming that the case remains active and unresolved.

There is no clear information on her current whereabouts or family in the United States, with international cooperation ongoing to monitor movements and disrupt Iran-based intelligence activities.

Officials say Witt may be living under aliases such as Fatemah Zahra or Narges Witt, possibly in Iran under protection of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, and fluent in Farsi.
