TEHRAN (Dispatches) - Judiciary spokesman Gholam Hossein Esmayeeli said on Tuesday that Iranian courts have issued rulings for two persons who spied for the U.S. and Saudi Arabia in the country.
"Rulings have been issued for two spies of the U.S. and Saudi intelligence agencies," Esmayeeli told reporters in a press conference.
The spokesman declined to reveal any further details.
Iran occasionally identifies and arrests spies working for foreign intelligence agencies.
Esmayeeli had also said last Monday that a female Iranian national was sentenced to 10 years in prison for spying for Britain.
He told reporters in a press conference in Tehran that a female Iranian national who was in charge of the Iran desk at the British Council was sentenced to 10 years in prison after she made confessions.
