2012-06-14 | |
Announcement in Iranian media marks 2nd wave of arrests of alleged assassins accused of killing nuclear scientists; Tehran says it is committed to bring to justice "terrorists" who "martyred scientists in cold blood."
Tehran has in the past accused Israel of being behind the killings of several of its nuclear scientists. In January, the Islamic state blamed Israel when a nuclear scientist was killed by a bomb placed on his car by a motorcyclist in Tehran. The announcement marks the second wave of Iranian arrests of alleged assassins in recent months. In April, Iran announced that it had arrested several members of a "major terrorist group" over the killing of nuclear scientists. | |
