Iran says individuals held in connection with colonel's killing
The announcement was made as Israel and Iran traded more overt threats in their escalating war of words.
Iran's judiciary has confirmed it was holding individuals accused of involvement in the high-profile killing of a colonel back in May that Tehran blamed on Israel's intelligence apparatus.
Judicial spokesperson Masoud Setayeshi said at a Sept. 13 press conference in Tehran that an investigation into the assassination of Hassan Sayyad Khodai was underway.
