Tehran–APA. Iran arrested four Iranians accused of involvement in a U.S.-financed plot aimed at toppling its religious leadership, APA reports. Judiciary spokesman said the accused, who he said were financed by the U.S. government and Congress, were arrested in Tehran and their verdicts would be announced soon. Iran often accuses the West of seeking to undermine the Islamic state through a "soft" or "velvet revolution" with the help of intellectuals and others inside the country.
Earlier Iranian government officials accused British citizens working for BBC in spy activity and then denied it. Recently Israeli nuclear spying network was unveiled in Iran.
