Iranian-Swedish dissident to face trial in Iran over Arab separatist ‘bomb attacks’
[IsraelTimes] An Iranian-Swedish dissident held in Iran
...Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979...
for over a year will face trial accused of carrying out "kabooms" for an Arab separatist group, says a charge sheet published today.

Habib Chaab disappeared during a visit to The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...the occupiers of Greek Asia Minor...
in October 2020 and a month later appeared in a video broadcast by Iran state television
... and if you can't believe state television who can you believe?
in which he confessed to robbery and working with Saudi intelligence services.

Iran accuses him of having led a "terrorist group called ASMLA," the judiciary’s Mizan Online agency says, referring to an Arab separatist group.

ASMLA or the Arab Struggle Movement for the Liberation of Ahvaz
...Sunni Arabs who’re tired of being ruled by Shiite Persians, so they’ve been getting feisty...
is designated as a terrorist group by Iran.

Chaab is also accused of "planning and carrying out a number of terrorist acts, including kabooms in Khuzestan province, and of destroying public property," Mizan Online says.

The oil-rich southwestern province has a large Arab minority that has regularly complained of being marginalized.

A date for the trial has not been provided.
