Suspicion over Iranians with forged passports

-

ISRAELI OFFICIALS SAID there were “too many coincidenc­es” surroundin­g the case of two Iranians caught in Argentina on forged Israeli passports.

The men entered the country even though their passports were flagged during a circuitous journey via Greece and Spain.

They were eventually arrested last week after checking into three hotels in 24 hours, close to where the Israeli Embassy planned to commemorat­e the 27th anniversar­y of a Jewish community centre bombing.
