| 4 Iranian border guards released |
| 2004-02-10 |
| Four Iranian border guards released by American forces after some 290 days of captivity in Iraq, arrived in this southern border city on Saturday. Hummmmm The Iranian border guards Ardeshir Zolfaghari, Majid Amani, Rezasheikhi and Ali-Asghar Talebi were kidnapped by the outlawed MKO terrorist group elements in the border city of Naft-Shahr on April 23, 2003, and handed over to American forces in Iraq. Story doesn’t say how long MKO held them. Kind of makes you wonder why we took so long to release these poor "innocent" kidnap victims. The released Iranian border guards were due to arrive in Iran but their hand-over to Iranian authorities was delayed several hours. |
