Iran diplomats face charges in Kenya for filming Israeli embassy
[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] Two Iranians and their Kenyan driver, who worked for the Iranian embassy in Nairobi, were charged on Thursday with collecting information for a terrorist act after filming the Israeli embassy, lawyers said.
So they can report that security is pretty tight, once they get out of jug.
Sayed Nasrollah Ebrahimi, Abdolhosein Ghola Safafe and driver Moses Keyah Mmboga "were found taking video clips of the Israeli embassy ... for the use in the commission of a terrorist act", according to a charge sheet produced in court.

The three men were in a car belonging to the Iranian embassy when they were locked away
Don't shoot, coppers! I'm comin' out!
on Tuesday, the court papers said. The diplomatic status of the two Iranians was unclear.

The Iranian embassy did not respond to requests for comment.

"My clients pleaded not guilty
"Wudn't me."
and have been detained by the ATPU (Kenya’s Anti Terrorism Police Unit) for further interrogation," defense lawyer Cohen Amanya told Rooters after the men’s court appearance.

Prosecutor Duncan Ondimu said the two Iranians were visiting Kenya but gave no further details.
The Times of Israel adds:
They were detained in the capital, Nairobi after they had come from visiting Kamiti Prison where they saw two other Iranians who have been jailed for 15 years on terrorism charges.
Stopped to buck up fellow members of Iran's Revolutionary Guards Quds Force. Soon they'll be discussing their adventures daily over tea.
Update from The Times of Israel at 4:30 p.m. ET:
According to Iranian Foreign Ministry front man Bahram Ghasemi, the two men are "official lawyers of the justice ministry... who traveled to Nairobi on behalf of the families of two Iranian prisoners in Kenya for a legal follow-up."

Ghasemi said the arrest of the two lawyers had been the result of a "misunderstanding," and called for their immediate release.
Lawyers instead of spies and saboteurs? Should be easy enough to test.
