Iran Smashes Jundollah Terrorists in Southeastern Province
TEHRAN (FNA)- Iranian security forces killed two commanders of the Jundollah terrorist group in the country's Southeastern province of Sistan and Balouchestan.
The two terrorists were killed in a clash with the security forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran.
The clash took place in Iran's Southeastern province of Sistan-Balouchestan after the Jundollah members were ambushed by Iran's security forces, the Islamic republic news agency quoted the terrorist group as saying on a website on Saturday.
The Jundollah group has claimed responsibility for numerous terrorist attacks in Iran. The group has carried out mass murder, armed robbery, kidnapping, acts of sabotage and bombings. They have targeted civilians and government officials as well as all ranks of Iran's military.
Former Jundollah ringleader Abdolmalek Rigi was arrested by Iranian intelligence forces in February 2010 and executed in June for 79 counts of crime, including manslaughter, armed robbery, bombing operations and armed attacks on security officers and civilians.
In one of the worst cases, the terrorist group killed 22 citizens and abducted 7 more in the Tasouki region on a road linking the southeastern city of Zahedan to another provincial town.
In 2007, Jundollah kidnapped 30 people in the Sistan and Balouchestan province and took them to the neighboring Pakistan.
Jundollah claimed responsibility the same year for an attack on an Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) bus in which 11 IRGC personnel were killed.
In another crime in October 2009, the Pakistan-based terrorist Jundollah group claimed responsibility for a deadly attack in the Sistan and Balouchestan province which killed 42 people among them a group of senior military commanders, including Lieutenant Commander of the IRGC Ground Force Brigadier General Nourali Shoushtari.
