Reza Zarrab's Iranian partner:

Billionaire [Babak Zanjani] To Be Hanged After Government Collects Its Money

en.radiofarda.com/a/iran-billion…
This piece speculates that Reza Zarrab opted to come to Miami to be arrested, rather than continue to "try his luck" with Turkey and Iran:

cbc.ca/news/world/who…
As noted by @JamesFourM Reza Zarrab is a "Turkey-based businessman. He has quadruple Iranian, Azerbaijani, Turkish and Macedonian citizenship."

It's Wiki, yet there is a lot of detail here. For ex: Erdogan tried to swap him for Brunson, etc:

@JamesFourM "In a rare move, Turkish officials sent a memo to their US counterparts last week, demanding to know where Zarrab is and if he is in good health....U.S. officials responded, saying he was MOVED ELSEHWERE, and doing well."

lol

Reuters 2014 article: Reza Zarrab and Babak Zanjani:

"Zarrab, who grew up in Turkey, is the ringleader"

"Golden Loophole: How an alleged Turkish crime ring helped Iran"

Erdogan arrested Zarrab, and then set him free. Later, Zarrab donated $5 Million to the Turkish president's wife's charity.

Both Erdogan and his wife asked Biden and his wife for Zarrab's release.

Interesting, no?
"To keep the biz nning smoothly...Zarrab’s network paid bribes to Zafer Caglayan, Turkey’s economy minister; Muammer Guler, the interior minister; Egemen Bagis, the European Union Affairs minister; and Suleyman Aslan, Halkbank’s chief exec."

Aslan convicted in U.S., last year.
*”to keep the biz running smoothly...”
Reza Zarrab is married to the most famous pop singer in Turkey, Ebru Gundes. (There are some great articles re his background, linked in the Wiki above). He is a BIG deal.
Turkey's president demanding Preet Bharara's firing (9/21/16):

Rudy's firm - before they fired him - was doing Turkish visas. They were suspended after protesters were beat up by Erdogan's thugs, yet they've started back up again (to appease Erdogan I'll bet):

All this ties to TRUMP and his (now deceased), "Russian Hand," Elena Baronoff:

They were/are feeding Turkish elites into Trump's properties.

That's why Trump is beholden to Erdogan, and does his bidding. You want me to fire Preet, I FIRE PREET:

Don Jr ran his butt to Turkey right after the election. WHY?

Let's back up. Let's look at Reza Zarrab's CITIZENSHIP: 👀

Iranian Revolutionary Guard money, laundered into Azerbaijan. Where does that come up again? 🤔

Oh yea, that's right: #TrumpTowerBaku #Ivanka

Donald Trump’s Worst Deal #TrumpTowerBaku #Ivanka

"The President helped build a hotel in Azerbaijan that appears to be a corrupt operation engineered by oligarchs tied to Iran’s Revolutionary Guard"

newyorker.com/magazine/2017/…
Why it's like a great-big-f*cking-circle of corruption, or something! 🙃

😁✌🏽eot
Don't forget: Trump's conspiring with Erdogan was the last straw for Mattis. It's what made Mattis put his foot down and say, "f*ck this sh*t, I'm out" ✌🏽

Perhaps MSM should dig more on Trump's Turkish connects?

Trump knows he's NOT going to get away w/this. You know why? 🤔

B/c the now-convicted Turkish bank mgr (Aslan), & Zarrab's calls...

WERE TAPED! 🤣So unless Zarrab meets w/a "bad accident" (he won't he's been moved), he's giving them ALL up: 😂✌🏽
