Iran links dissident group to Saudi ambassador assassination plot
2011-10-19
Tehran has pointed the finger at a dissident group it considers a "sworn enemy" in an attempt to distance itself from US accusations that the Islamic regime in Iran conspired to kill the Saudi ambassador to Washington.
"Wudn't us. Honest. Would we lie to you?"
Iran's semi-official Mehr news agency reported that one of the two suspects the US said were involved in a plot to hire a Mexican drug cartel to assassinate Adel al-Jubeir is a "key member" of an Iranian dissident group, the People's Mujahideen of Iran (MEK).

"The person in question has been travelling to different countries under the names of Ali Shakuri/Gholam Shakuri/Gholam-Hossein Shakuri by using fake passports, including forged Iranian passports," according to Mehr
