Customs and Border Patrol DENIES reports that Iranians, some of them US citizens, have been detained by American agents at the Canadian border amid tensions between Washington and Tehran
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] - The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) reported Sunday that more than 60 Iranians and Iranian-Americans of all ages have been detained
- It was claimed they were detained at length and questioned by officers at the Peace Arch Border Crossing in Blaine, Washington
- But Customs and Border Protection has since issued a statement saying the claim was false
- It said extra wait times of up to four hours at the border were as a result of increased passenger volumes over the holiday period
