Irans Vahidi sought by Interpol: prosecutor
2009-08-22
" Mr Vahidi was a deputy defense minister and this is very senior political position. Therefore it seems that this is a new trick being planned and is basically a Zionist plot "
Ahmadinejad press adviser Ali Akbar Javanfekr
[Al Arabiya Latest] Iran's defense minister-designate Ahmad Vahidi is being sought by Interpol in connection with the worst terrorist attack on Argentine soil, the 1994 bombing of a Jewish charities headquarters building, a prosecutor said Friday.

Prosecutor Alberto Nisman said Interpol has had a warrant for Vahidi's arrest in the case since November 2007.

Ahmad Vahidi, who commanded a unit of Iran's Revolutionary Guard known as the Quds Force at the time of the attack, was nominated by President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad Wednesday along with others named to fill Cabinet positions. The Quds Force is involved in operations abroad. "His nomination is very serious, given that Vahidi is a person who -- as former head of Al-Quds -- is deeply implicated with this attack," Nisman said
