The Iranian Judiciary says the country’s intelligence forces have seized a haul of American-made weapons in the central city of Isfahan, smuggled into Iran from Western borders in order to be used in the November riots. According to the public prosecutor of Isfahan, the consignment consists of over 126 riot (pellet) guns, firearms, and AK-47 as well as 900 live rounds.
“The weapons had been imported to Iran from Western borders, and were confiscated by members of the Intelligence Ministry in Isfahan province,” said Ali Esfahani.
The Judiciary official said five people have been arrested on charge of smuggling the weapons, and will face trial.
