The wife of a slain California doctor is suing his former wife after she allegedly hired a hitman to shoot him dead outside his treatment facility, where he reportedly helped celebrities and athletes overcome addiction.

Authorities say 53-year-old Ahang Mirshojae organized a posse to gun down her ex-husband, Dr. Hamid Mirshojae, 61, in an ambush-style murder in August 2024 outside his Los Angeles clinic.

Now the doctor's wife, Ghazal Simorgh, is suing Ahang Mirshojae and others involved in the alleged plot in a wrongful death lawsuit.

Ahang Mirshojae divorced the victim around 2010. Simorgh married her doctor husband in 2022 and they have a young daughter together.
