Iran accuses UK of cooperating with Ahvaz bombers
2006-01-25
TEHRAN (Reuters) - Iran on Wednesday accused Britain of cooperating with bombers who killed eight people in the southern Iranian city of Ahvaz on Tuesday.
In my dreams
"Their (British) co-operation, either in London or Basra, is clear and we will seriously express this to British officials," Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki told a news conference.
Seething to be delivered in person
"Yesterday's murders in Ahvaz were committed by those who proudly have their photographs taken with British officials. They enjoy the cooperation of British army commanders and use their facilities in Basra," he added.

"We hope British officials take this seriously, put it on their agenda and act accountably."

Britain has in the past denied any involvement with similar attacks in the region, which has seen intermittent rioting by the Islamic Republic's Arab minority who complain of discrimination by Tehran.
