The State Department neither confirmed nor denied the meetings between Robert Malley and Saeed Iravani, but said that the US had its channels to communicate messages to the Iranian side, the paper said after reaching out for comment.
The meetings would have occurred amid the continued protests in Iran following the death of Mahsa Amini in the custody of the country's so-called "morality" police.
Tehran has been condemned for viscously quelling the riots and executing prisoners, with the European Union even considering to declare the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps a terror organization.
