Iranian Police Vow Tough Confrontation against Outlaws
TEHRAN, May 10 (FNA)- Senior Iranian border guard officials vowed tough confrontation against outlaws and terrorist groups, stressing that the country's police squad would never allow anyone to disturb security, specially along the country's Eastern borders.
"The brave border guards of Sistan and Balouchestan province are standing with all their power and do not allow outlaws and terrorists to create an insecure atmosphere in the eastern borders of the country," Deputy Commander of the Iranian Border Guard Police for Coordination General Seyed Abbas Atayee said on Monday.
He also underlined the importance of reinforcing security in the bordering areas, and said, "Border guards have a special position in the establishment of sustainable security along the borders of the Islamic Republic of Iran."
Earlier, Iranian Deputy Interior Minister for Security and Law Enforcement Affairs Ali Abdollahi had announced that the Islamic Republic of Iran has drawn a comprehensive plan to establish sustainable security along the country's borders.
Abdollahi underlined that implementation of the plan in Iran's Southeastern, Northwestern and Western border regions sets a priority for the ministry, and noted, "The plan will be implemented in all the border regions in a bid to prevent illegal border crossings, specially by terrorist groups and outlaws."
Also, Iranian Defense Minister Brigadier General Ahmad Vahidi announced in April that Iran is building a long fence along its border with Pakistan as part of its measures to block the entry of drug-traffickers and terrorists into the country.
Iran is on a crossroad of international drug transit route linking the world drug hub, Afghanistan, to the Persian Gulf and European countries.
Iran spends billions of dollars and has lost thousands of its police troops in the war against traffickers and terrorists. The crackdown has cost Iran more than 700 million dollars over the past two years. Last year, Iran allocated millions of dollars to strengthen border security and block the entry of terrorists and drug traffickers into the country.
Strategies pursued by Tehran include digging canals, building barriers and installing barbed wire to seal its borders.
