'No Iranian weapons found in Iraq'
2008-05-29
Iran's Embassy in Baghdad says Iraq's fact-finding committee has found no evidence that Tehran is supplying weapons to the country.

Embassy spokesman Manouchehr Taslimi said Wednesday that despite US allegations, Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki's special committee had found no credible evidence that Iran has been training and arming Iraqi militias.

The Iranian official rejected US allegations that an Iraqi interior ministry employee, who was indicted for alleged insurgent activities on Tuesday, had links to Iran's Revolutionary Guards Corps. "The Iranian embassy in Baghdad considers such allegations as futile attempts aimed at undermining the strong Iran-Iraq relations," read an embassy statement.

The statement highlighted that Washington had failed to provide any concrete evidence for its long list of false accusations against the Islamic Republic.
