Iran arrests Jundallah chief Rigi: AFP reports
Tuesday, 23 Feb, 2010 10:02 am
TEHRAN : Iran has arrested top militant rebel leader Abdolmalek Rigi who has been accused of being the mastermind of a series of deadly bombings and killings, local media reported on Tuesday.

Tehran based Arabic news channel Al-Alam said that he has been arrested in the "east of the country", while the Fars news agency is quoting the Iranian intelligence ministry saying the arrest did take place for the "Jundallah leader along with two of his group members."

No further information has been forwarded so far.

Rigi heads a shadowy rebel group called Jundallah (Soldiers of God) which has been accused by Iranian officials of carrying out several attacks in Sistan-Baluchestan.

The province, which houses a significant population of Sunni Baluchis, is a hotbed of insurgency against Shiite rule in Iran.

Jandullah and Reki were also allegedly involved in the Oct 18 09 blast in Iran as a suicide bomber killed seven commanders of Iran’s elite Revolutionary Guards and up to 42 other people.
" Reki's arrest would ease up tensions in the region as Jandullah was considered a major bone of contention between Pakistan and Iran.
