Pakistan Should Be Held Accountable for Deadly Attack on Iranian Border Guards: Police
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – The spokesman for the Iranian Police said neighboring Pakistan should accept its responsibility for a cross-border terrorist attack by Takfiri militants that killed 10 Iranian border guards in the southeastern province of Sistan and Baluchestan.
Speaking to the Tasnim News Agency late on Wednesday, Brigadier General Saeed Montazer-al-Mahdi confirmed the terrorist attack and said the border guards were killed by long-range weapons firing from inside Pakistan.
The Pakistani government is to blame for the incident and they should be accountable for it, the spokesman said.
Takfiri militants shot to death 10 Iranian border guards who were patrolling on the frontier with Pakistan on Wednesday.
The Iranian troops were martyred in an ambush by the terrorists in Mirjaveh in the Iran-Pakistan border’s zero-point.
A terrorist group calling itself Jaish al-Adl has claimed responsibility for the deadly attack.

@The Eagle why change the title? The Iranian Police Chief has made it very clear the terrorists attacked from the Pakistani side of the border.

"border guards were killed by long-range weapons firing from inside Pakistan."
He doesn't count Iranian sources !!!
FM spokesman expresses sorrow over martyrdom of border guards
Ghasemi said the Pakistani government should be accountable to the presence and operations of terrorist groups in its territory.
He also extended his condolences over death of Iranian border guards martyred in a recent clash with terrorists in the city of Mirjaveh in Iran’s southeastern province of Sistan-Baluchestan.
Ghasemi underlined that the recent terrorist attacks committed armed bandits and terrorist groups, that are used as a tool by some certain supporters of violence, extremism and Takfiri terrorist along the borders of Iran and Pakistan, are seriously condemned and unacceptable.
Those countries (Pakistan) that are participating in the anti-terrorist coalition should respond that why they are unable to deal with terrorist groups and armed bandits in their own territories, he added.
Ghasemi underlined that Iran’s diplomatic apparatus is not going to spare any efforts to follow the issue by using all available diplomatic channels to punish the sinister terrorists.
On Wednesday (April 26) evening, nine Iranian border guards were martyred during an attack by terrorists.
They were reportedly killed while patrolling in the city of Mirjaveh, located 75 km east of the provincial capital city of Zahedan.
This is totally new and bit of contradictory as compare to what Iran said. What of type of weapons are being discussed in this single line? and the operator?
Its me that also does not counted any Pakistani Source.

There is no need to get emotional on local media reports.

The irony is that countries who can't control the terrorists on their own soil, send out their troops to other countries to fight the so called terrorists!What a stupid logic he presented. We shouldn't be a part of any anti terror coalition just because we have terrorism problem in our country? Seems like Iranian officials are so butthurt that their brains stopped working. Even a stupid spokesman is crying over it. Good
Lastly, separate from this matter about the location the terrorists came from, the title should be changed from " 'Terrorists' " to just " Terrorists ". Otherwise it appears as if there is some dispute over the fact that Jaish ul Adl, a Salafist Jihadi group, is not a terrorist group.
They are not simple local media. The Police Chief (senior official) confirmed this. Police are responsible for the border!
Unless you mean that we need Pakistani officials to confirm this, but how could they? They would have no knowledge of the incident from their own sources since there is no report of Pakistani observation or Pakistani casualties (and therefore no eyewitnesses). The terrorists attacked an Iranian border post and the survivors of the attack would have been able to tell the Iranian authorities the exact nature of the attack. So Iran has all the information.
Why you guys are so delusional? what so called terrorists? For you Daesh is a so called terrorist organization? Alliance has not even started functioning yet and here you are trying to warn us about future like a najoomi.The irony is that countries who can't control the terrorists on their own soil, send out their troops to other countries to fight the so called terrorists!
