Newly released court documents have revealed that IT consultant Nima Momeni fatally stabbed CashApp founder Bob Lee following an argument about Momeni’s sister, Khazar Momeni, who is married to plastic surgeon Dr. Dino Elyassnia.
According to legal filings, Lee’s killing was planned and deliberate, with Momeni driving Lee to a secluded area in San Francisco and stabbing him in the heart three times.
The murder occurred after the two spent the evening with Khazar and another witness, discussing whether Lee was “doing drugs or anything inappropriate.”
Although the witness was unclear whether Lee and Khazar shared an intimate relationship, Lee assured Momeni that nothing was happening between them.
Court documents also revealed that Khazar texted Lee around his death to check on him and thanked him for handling the situation with class.
Khazar and her husband, Dr. Elyassnia, appeared in public for the first time at the San Francisco courtroom, surrounded by reporters and photographers, but declined to speak to journalists.
The Involvement Of Khazar Momeni & Dr Dino Elyassnia in Bob Lee’s Murder
Khazar Momeni was born in Iran but moved to the United States as a child.
Not much information is known about her life, but she has been spotted at the Fly Trap restaurant in San Francisco, owned by Iranian American restaurateur Hoss Zaré.
According to Zaré, Khazar used to visit the restaurant with friends and would always send compliments to the chef.
Who Is Dr. Dino Elyassnia?
In 2013, Khazar married Dr. Dino Elyassnia, a plastic surgeon of Assyrian and Armenian ancestry known for his work in rhinoplasty.
He attended the University of Southern California Medical School and graduated with a degree in cosmetic surgery. Dr. Dino now works at the Marten Clinic of Plastic Surgery.
Little is known about Khazar’s personal life. Currently, Nima Momeni, Khazar’s brother, is facing a possible sentence of 26 years to life in prison if convicted of the murder of CashApp founder Bob Lee. He is set to be indicted on April 25th.
