Iran arrests terrorist group responsible for kidnapping, murder of human rights advocates

Iranian intelligence services have discovered and apprehended all members of a terrorist organization in the country's southeastern province of Sistan and Baluchestan, according to a statement issued by the Intelligence Ministry's regional office on Friday.

Iran (IMNA) - According to the statement, the terrorist group was engaged in the violent kidnapping and murder of rights advocates Samir Baluch and his pregnant wife, Hanigol Baluch, in Iranshar County earlier this month, as well as their relocation to the fringes of the border district of Saravan.

The two campaigners (shown below) were tortured, murdered, and then burned and abandoned near the border.

The intelligence forces in the southeastern province were able to identify and arrest all six members of the terrorist organization after conducting extensive investigations into the circumstances surrounding the horrible act, according to the statement.

According to the report, anti-Iran militants and their supporters sought to blame the savage execution of Samir and his wife on Iranian security forces as part of conspiracies to promote instability and stoke the flames of riots across the country.

Iran's Intelligence Ministry said late last month that its troops had disbanded a number of terrorist cells associated with the Israeli regime in four provinces throughout the nation.

The "sabotage cells" were part of a huge "Zionist-terrorist" network that carried out various operations in the four Iranian provinces of Khuzestan, Mazandaran, Kermanshah, and Sistan and Baluchestan, according to the ministry.

Terrorists were attempting to arrange attacks and blame them on the country's police and law enforcement, according to the report.
