Did the US abduct an Iranian nuclear scientist?

Videos deepen mystery over Iran nuclear scientist Amiri

Two videos have emerged supposedly showing the scientist at the centre of the row.

The Iranian government says it has evidence that one of its nuclear scientists was abducted and is being held in the US against his will.

Shahram Amiri disappeared a year ago while on a pilgrimage to Saudi Arabia.

A video broadcast by Iranian TV purports to show Mr Amiri saying he was kidnapped and is living in Arizona.

Hours later, another video posted on YouTube appeared to show the scientist saying he was happy in America. The US denied abducting him.
