"The apprehension of Mossad agents and the perpetrators behind the assassination of one of the country's prominent [scholars]… is a turning point in the scientific developments in the country," Seddiqi stressed.
Hojjatoleslam Seddiqi pointed to arrests by the agents of the Intelligence Ministry of culprits behind the murdering of Iranian scientist Masoud Ali Mohammadi and said the regime has already been defeated in the field of information and secret systems.
Seddiqi criticized the international community for not taking any stance against Israel after it was known the perpetrators behind the killing were trained inside 'Israel'.
"The Zionist regime has been basically established to tear the heart of nations by its horn and massacre innocent people," Hojjatoleslam Seddiqi added.
Seddiqi said the Zionist regime is against free expansion of science and does not tolerate those who seek the progress of their country. "This is a blot on the record of the regime and its supporters," he added.
Iranian Intelligence Minister Heidar Moslehi announced on Tuesday that the country had arrested 10 Israeli spies and disband several spying networks after infiltrating the Zionist regime's intelligence system and IT networks.
Speaking to reporters here in Tehran, Moslehi revealed more details about his ministry's investigations into the last year assassination of Ali Mohammadi, and informed reporters of a very tough war of IT (Information Technology) between the Iranian and Israeli intelligence bodies.
The intelligence minister said that Iran could win the IT confrontation due to its highly efficient and skillful human resources, adding that the Iranian IT experts could infiltrate Mossad's (Israeli spy agency) advanced IT networks.
"The intelligence system of the Islamic Republic of Iran has achieved a remarkable triumph and intelligence supremacy over the Zionist regime's espionage system and we succeeded in identifying enemy's elements," the minister noted.
He added that the Iranian forces also identified and smashed the different spying networks created and trained by the regime (Israel), adding that the terrorist whose confessions were aired in Iran's national TV Monday night was just one of the members of such networks.
The minister added that identification of the elements behind the last year assassination of the Iranian nuclear scientist has helped the ministry identify other rings and arrest their members.
Iranian university professor and nuclear scientist, Massoud Ali Mohammadi, was assassinated in a terrorist bomb attack in Tehran in January 2010.
The 50-year-old professor was killed in a booby-trapped motorbike blast in front of his house in Qeytariyeh neighborhood in Northern Tehran.
