LONDON - Iran's judiciary spokesman on Tuesday announced the arrests of an unspecified number of suspects in connection with the accidental shootdown of a Ukrainian passenger jet that killed all 176 people on board shortly after takeoff from Tehran last week.
"Extensive investigations have taken place and some individuals are arrested," the spokesman, Gholamhossein Esmaili, said in remarks carried by Iran's official state-run news agency, IRNA.
Further information was not immediately available. ...
Some "individuals" have been arrested. Ah, so a lot of generic "individuals" in Iran possess and have the ability to fire Russian-made anti-aircraft missiles, eh? Hmmm ... I might be a little jaded when it comes to the pathological lying that occurs each and every time a person in Iran's despotic government opens their diseased mouth, BUT ... it seems HIGHLY, HIGHLY plausible to me that, instead of arresting the Iranian military personnel who actually fired that Russian-made anti-aircraft missile at the Ukrainian airliner, the lying scumbags of the Iranian government more than likely rounded up a few anti-mullah protestors, put them in Iranian military uniforms, and then "arrested" them. A quick, staged trial ... I'm sure the mullahs could get some procedural pointers from Piglosi, Schitt & Nadless on how to conduct a kangaroo court ... and an immediate execution ... just like the speedy efficiency the Iranians showed in scouring the evidence of their wrongdoing from the airliner's crash sight.
