Islam Times - Individual with Links to Foreign Spy Agency Arrested by IRGC Forces in NW Iran

Islam Times - An individual has been arrested by the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) intelligence forces in Iran’s northwestern province of Ardabil on charges of affiliation to the spy agency of a neighboring country.

In a statement released on Thursday, the IRGC announced that servicemen from the provincial Hazrat Abbas base captured the person, whose identity was not immediately available, following a technical and surveillance operation, and handed him over to judicial authorities for legal action, Press TV reported.

Over the past few years, Iran’s security forces have dismantled many foreign-backed terror outfits along its borders.

Last week, IRGC intelligence forces identified and dismantled a team of Takfiri terrorists in Iran’s western province of Kermanshah.

In October, Iran’s Intelligence Ministry said it had dismantled a separatist terrorist group linked to the Israeli regime that intended to infiltrate the country.
