Death penalty looms
Mossad collaborators? Twelve arrests in Iran
The Iranian Revolutionary Guards have arrested twelve people for allegedly spying for the Israeli foreign intelligence service Mossad. The suspects are said to have been involved in the preparation of attacks.
The people were arrested in six different Iranian provinces. It was not mentioned when this happened. The men had tried to gather secret information and pass it on to the Mossad, the Revolutionary Guards explained. Details on the identity of the alleged agents were not provided. It also remained unclear what secret information they allegedly wanted to collect and pass on.
