TEHRAN – Iran’s prosecutor general has said he has reported over 10 officials with dual nationalities to the Ministry of Intelligence.

Speaking on Friday, Mohammad Jafar Montazeri said in his letter he has asked the ministry to take proper action against these officials, Resalat newspaper reported.

“Dual nationals cannot, according to the law, hold office in governmental or executive organizations. But they usually do not reveal their nationality status. So it is security organizations which have to take care and monitor them,” Montazeri stressed.
