Report: Azerbaijan Frees Hizbullah Members Accused of Plotting Attack on Israeli Embassy
|
[An Nahar] Azerbaijan authorities have released two Hizbullah activists convicted of plotting an attack on the Israeli embassy in the capital, Baku in 2008, Kuwaiti Daily Al Rai reported on Monday.
Ali Hussein Najmeddin and Ali Muhammad Karaki were charged along with four Azeri citizens with attempting to bomb the Israeli embassy in retaliation for the liquidation of Hizbullah's military commander Imad Moughniyeh and sentenced in 2009 to 15 years in prison, Al Rai reported.
An Azerbaijani security source told Al Rai that Najmeddin and Karaki were deported to Leb.
The source said that Najmeddin and Karaki's release occurred after weeks of intense negotiations involving Iran, which ended in Hizbullah's commitment not to use Azeri territories as a field for its activities.
Seriously? Sent home on an "I'll be good, cross my heart!"?
The source said that the Azeri authorities concerned succeeded in discovering the plan of Hizbullah and the Iranian Revolutionary Guards through monitoring the group which was infiltrated by local intelligence agents.
*sigh* Even Soviet satellites are not what they used to be. |
