The Iranian Intelligence Ministry announced on Thursday that its forces have managed to arrest the terrorists who had assassinated the country’s two nuclear scientists and a policeman.<\/p>\n
Security forces arrested assassins of nuclear scientists Majid Shahriari, Mostafa Ahmadi Roshan and policeman Reza Qashqaei, the ministry said in a statement. <\/p>\n
The criminals are now under the arrest, it said, adding, "The details of the arrest will be made public after lapse of security precaution." <\/p>\n
Iran has so far arrested several suspects in relation to the assassination of its scientists. <\/p>\n
Western spy agencies, collaborated by the terrorist Mojahedin-e Khalq Organization (MKO), have assassinated several Iranian scientists in the last three years. <\/p>\n
In the fifth attack of its kind in two years, terrorists killed a 32-year-old Iranian scientist, Mostafa Ahmadi Roshan, and his driver on January 11. <\/p>\n
The blast took place on the second anniversary of the martyrdom of Iranian university professor and nuclear scientist, Massoud Ali Mohammadi, who was also assassinated in a terrorist bomb attack in Tehran in January 2010. <\/p>\n
The assassination method used in the bombing was similar to the 2010 terrorist bomb attacks against the then university professor, Fereidoun Abbassi Davani – who is now the head of Iran’s Atomic Energy Organization – and his colleague Majid Shahriari. While Abbasi Davani survived the attack, Shahriari was martyred. <\/p>\n
Another Iranian scientist, Dariush Rezaeinejad, was also assassinated through the same method on 23 July 2011. <\/p>\n
Reports said that the terrorist attacks on Iran’s scientists were joint operations by Israeli spy agents and the MKO. <\/p>\n
The NBC News said in a report in February that Mossad has financed and trained the MKO to assassinate Iranian nuclear scientists. <\/p>\n
Two senior US officials, speaking on the condition of anonymity, confirmed to the NBC News that the MKO was to blame for the series of assassinations against Iranian nuclear scientists. <\/p>\n
"All your inclinations are correct," said one of the officials while speaking about the group’s role in the assassinations and Tel Aviv’s support for the group. <\/p>\n
The US officials said the US government was aware of the assassination campaign. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
