some of those responsible for liquidations of its nuclear scientists, state media reported on Sunday, in a continued hunt for those it says are working to sabotage its nuclear program.
 
Intelligence Minister Heydar Moslehi said Iran had shut down two networks inside and outside the country he said were involved in training the killers, Fars news agency reported.

Moslehi did not say how many people had been placed in long-term storage
Maw! They're comin' to get me, Maw!
, for which killings they were allegedly responsible, where the networks were operating or how they trained the assassins.
 
"They (the two networks) took steps not to leave any clues behind but they were stricken by mistakes," he said.

in connection with liquidation of nuclear scientist

About 30 suspects have been cooled for a few years
... anything you say can and will be used against you, whether you say it or not...
in connection with the liquidation last year of a nuclear electronics expert, Iran’s intelligence chief Heidar Moslehi said Sunday

MoslehiÂ’s comments, reported by the official IRNA news agency Sunday, gave no other details on the arrests, including whether they are new or among those previously announced.

At least five Iranian nuclear experts have been killed since 2010. In May, Iran hanged a man convicted in the killing of a nuclear physicist in early 2010.

Also Sunday, IranÂ’s nuclear chief said more domestically produced nuclear fuel has been supplied to a medical research reactor, and said the country could produce nuclear fuel for ships if it wanted.

#1  They'll never guess that the real nuclear saboteurs are two of their very best scientists, ones they'd least expect. They need to torture all of them to find out which ones.
