AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): The Iranian Intelligence Ministry announced it has arrested Masmatus, the second man of an anti-Iran terrorist group based in the United States, Tondar.
The Intelligence Ministry of the Islamic Republic of Iran announced that the terrorist who was arrested last month is 'Masmatus'.
On August 2, 2020, Iran's Intelligence Ministry arrested the ringleader of the terrorist group of Tondar, Jamshid Sharmahd, who was conducting armed and sabotage operations in Iran.
Tondar, or the Kingdom Assembly of Iran, also known as Soldiers of the Kingdom Assembly of Iran, is an armed terrorist royalist group seeking to overthrow the ruling government and restore the monarchy in Iran.
Tondar claimed responsibility for the 2008 Shiraz explosion at the Hosseynieh Seyed al-Shohada in which 14 people, including children, were killed and 215 others were injured.
Mohammad-Reza Ali Zamani and Arash Rahmanipour, accused of being members of the terrorist group, were arrested and tried for the bombing. In January 2010, they were executed for waging war against God and attempting to overthrow the Islamic Republic.
Tondar had also plotted several other terrorist acts in Iran in recent years, including blowing up Sivand dam in Shiraz, detonating cyanide bombs at Tehran book exhibition and explosion of bombs during general ceremonies at late Imam Khomeini’s shrine. All these terrorist plots were foiled by the Iranian security forces.
