(CNS News) — The Iranian government has lodged a complaint with Interpol regarding comments made during U.S. congressional hearings last October, including calls to assassinate top figures in Tehran’s terror-sponsoring security apparatus.
Iran’s national prosecutor general, Gholam Hossein Mohseni-Ejei, in a letter to Interpol on Monday called for “legal action” against two Americans, the official IRNA news agency reported.
Mohseni-Ejei told Iran’s Press TV that the judiciary had opened a case and was “providing more documents to the Interpol, so that the two Americans, who have threatened the Iranian commander with assassination, would be prosecuted.”
Interpol does not “prosecute” criminal suspects but it is empowered to issue “red notices” — equivalent to placing a suspect on a most-wanted list – at the request of member states or international organizations.
Queries sent to Interpol about the Iranian request brought no response by press time.
