Iran summons German ambassador over allegations of attacks

Tehran, Oct 20 (Prensa Latina) Iran summoned German Ambassador to Tehran, Axel Dittmann, on Tuesday to lodge a formal protest over allegations linking the country to an alleged plot to carry out attacks on Israeli organizations' leaders on German territory.

Local television reported that the Foreign Ministry conveyed to Dittmann it rejected statements by German officials who attribute responsibility for the alleged conspiracy to Tehran.

Iranian authorities described these accusations as a tactic long employed by Israel and certain Western nations against the Islamic Republic.

They further warned that providing legal backing to allegations they deem unfounded undermines the credibility of the German justice system.

Germany has arrested two suspects accused of planning attacks on Josef Schuster, President of the Central Council of Jews in Germany, and Volker Beck, Chairman of the German-Israeli Society.

German authorities said the two individuals allegedly prepared the attacks at the behest of Iran.

These accusations prompted the diplomatic exchange between the two countries.
