Police Chief of the Sistan and Baluchestan province Doust-Ali Jalilian told IRNA in an interview on Wednesday that police officers of the city became aware of reports of suspicious movements by members of a terrorist group when the officers were monitoring and observing security data.

The terrorist team hatched a plot to insecure the city, as well as the province, but they were identified before committing any sabotage, Jalilian said, noting that the terrorists were detained in a technical and complicated operation.

The commander also emphasized that the foes of the Islamic Republic of Iran should be aware public security is considered a red line for the Iranian police; therefore, those who incite public insecurity will be dealt with decisively based on the law.
