Mohamed Esfiri

Mohamed Esfiri was a man in the employ of Ari Haswari. 
==Biography==
===Pre-Series===
===NCIS Season 3===
Esfiri impersonated Haswari while the latter was being hunted by NCIS in retribution for Haswari's murder of Special Agent Caitlin Todd. Holding the weapon that Haswari had used to perpetrate that murder, Esfiri purposefully drew the attention of Special Agent Leroy Gibbs and NCIS Director Jenny Shepard; he was swiftly shot and killed by the agents. 
When the ballistics of Esfiri's firearm were matched to Todd's murder, NCIS mistakenly believed that Esfiri had in fact killed their agent and formally closed the case. Gibbs' persistence, however, led to him being confronted by Haswari, who was shot by his sister, Mossad Liaison Ziva David, rendering Esfiri's sacrifice moot. 
It is unknown what became of his body after his death.
==Personality==
Esfiri was willing to sacrifice his life for the cause of Haswari's continued freedom in the belief that he was a commanding member of al Qaeda; in truth, this was Haswari's cover, and he was in fact a double agent for the West, though he manipulated the powers afforded by this position for his own ends.
==Physical Appearance==
Esfiri had the appearance of a young Arabic man, looking enough like his superior Haswari to convince NCIS that he had been the shooter who had killed Caitlin Todd.
