Denmark accuses Iran of political ‘assassination plot’ on its soil
|(CNN)Danish authorities have accused the Iranian agents of attempting to carry out a plot to assassinate an Iranian-Arab opposition figure on Danish soil.
The alleged attack had meant to target the leader of the Danish branch of the separatist Arab Struggle Movement for the Liberation of Ahwaz (ASMLA), Danish Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Anne Møller Ege told CNN.
The group, which Iran classifies as a terror organization, advocates for an independent Arab state within the Iranian province of Khuzestan.
