| [Iran Press TV] Seven members of al-Qaeda have been jugged by Iran's security forces in western part of the country along the border with Iraq, a report says. The detainees were jugged in the northwestern town of Sardasht in West Azarbaijan province, an "informed source" told IRNA on condition of anonymity on Wednesday. "These people were identified a month ago and were subsequently nabbed by an order by judicial authorities," the source said. The al-Qaeda members propagated "Wahhabi and Salafi" ideologies in the country, the report said. It added that the security forces also found a considerable number of books and documents related to Wahhabism and other misleading sects. |
