Iranian diplomats have visited three Iranian suspects implicated in a series of bomb explosions in Thailand
Iranian diplomats have visited three Iranian suspects implicated in a series of bomb explosions in Thailand, the foreign ministry said on Tuesday according to the Fars news agency.
Iran's deputy foreign minister in charge of Asia and Oceanic affairs, Abbas Araqchi, was quoted as saying of the February 14 explosions in Bangkok: "We still do not know who is behind this and why they have done it." "The dimensions of this issue are not clear for us and there are ambiguities about this issue, and it seems that the scenario was devised by the Zionists to involve Iran in a new misdeed," he said.
Thai police have said the bombings were part of an alleged plot to kill Israeli diplomats, in a similar fashion to attempts on Israeli diplomats in India and Georgia.
Araqchi said Iranian diplomats in Asia were granted consular visits to two Iranians being held in Thailand and one being detained in Malaysia. "We are aware of their physical conditions and we were assured that international regulations will be applied to them," he said.
