Iran seizes illicit weapons and ammunition in Sistan

The Police Department of Sistan and Baluchestan Province, southeastern Iran, reported the seizure of weapons and ammunition in the province.

AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): The Police Department of Sistan and Baluchestan Province, southeastern Iran, reported the seizure of weapons and ammunition in the province.

Brigadier General Mohammad Ghanbari said on Sunday that the weapons seized included 17 rifles and 120 bullets.

He said ten traffickers were arrested and delivered to the judiciary authorities for trial processes.

General Ghanbari, commander of the Police Department of Sistan and Baluchestan Province, said that in line with the improvement of the social security plan that was implemented last week to increase the security of citizens and prevent crimes in Zabul city of the province, the seizure of illegal weapons and ammunition was put on the agenda of the police of this city.

Weapons have been entering the country from the eastern and western borders of Iran recently to be distributed among the rioters who instigated the recent unrest in Iran.

From late September, some parts of Iran, including the capital Tehran, witnessed unrest from the beginning of which the footprint of the foreign-backed media was clear.

The US and some European countries' politicians, their media, and the Persian-language media affiliated to them, namely the London-based BBC Persian and 'Iran International,' stepped in to fuel the riots under the pretext of supporting the rights of the Iranian nation.

In an interview with BBC, the US' former National Security Advisor John Bolton confessed that weapons from Iraq's Kurdistan had been sent to the rebels in Iran.
