(Ahlul Bayt News Agency) - "We expect Saudi government to follow up the issue through correct path instead of media sear campaign on the issue," he said.
The Foreign Ministry Spokesman further added that Saudi Arabia claimed that a network of spies has been arrested in the country a few months ago linked to Iran, but Iran has rejected the report at that time.
It has been claimed that there is an Iranian national among the 18 spies arrested previously and the 10 ones captured recently, he said, adding Tehran had asked Riyadh to provide consular access for the man, but it has received no response so far.
he noted "...we call on Saudi government to provides consular access to the person instead of media smear campaign on the issue."
Araqchi continued interaction between the two countries should be based on a logical and rational approach and without treatments which jeopardize bilateral relations between the two sides.
