Iraq: Security forces arrest ten people armed weapons Fri. June 27, 2008 02:05 am.- By Bonny Apunyu. - (SomaliNet) The official IRNA news agency said Thursday that Iranian security forces have arrested ten people armed with weapons including missile launchers who were trained abroad to carry out attacks in Iran. The news agency quoted a police official in the province of Sistan-Baluchestan as saying the arrests took place after security forces clashed with "terrorists" in recent days. "These bandits had entered the country to carry out bombings and create fear and panic among people of the province ... but in an operation ten of them were arrested," IRNA quoted Gulamali Nekoui as saying. Tehran has in the past accused Britain and the US of supporting ethnic minority rebels operating in sensitive border areas. Earlier this month, armed bandits kidnapped 16 Iranian police members and took them to Pakistan.
