Iran (IMNA) -The other two suspects were accused of assisting in the commission of these crimes. Nowruzof, also known as Aslamyar, carried out the attack on August 13, using an assault rifle and multiple magazines filled with bullets. The Daesh terrorist group claimed responsibility for this horrific incident.
During the trial, Nowruzof explained that he became a member of Daesh through a foreign messaging app and was advised to travel to Turkey. He then illegally crossed into Iran, Pakistan, and Afghanistan, with the latter being where he underwent military training.
Upon returning to Iran, Nowruzof resided near the Shah Cheragh shrine for nearly a month, reestablished contact with Daesh, and received weapons. He admitted to not keeping track of the number of targets but expressed his intention to continue the operation until he ran out of ammunition.
Nowruzof revealed that he had been instructed to acquire two containers of gasoline, but he only managed to bring one in his backpack as he entered the holy shrine. He was apprehended before he could set fire to the carpets where worshippers were present.
