Government seeking assistance from Argentina regarding claim of Iranian terrorist cell

GEORGETOWN, Guyana, CMC – The Guyana government Wednesday said it will ask Argentina for information regarding claims that Iran has been setting up terrorist cells in several Caribbean and South American countries including Guyana, Suriname and Trinidad and Tobago. Government spokesman Dr. Roger Luncheon told a news conference that The Donald Ramotar administration was very much interested in the information that was made public last week regarding the terrorist cells. “I expect that not only Guyana. I think those other Caricom countries as well as those other non-Caricom countries that the Argentine prosecutor identified would all be interest on what basis these allegations have been made,” he said.
