The Dutch intelligence agency revealed on Friday that Amsterdam had expelled in June two workers from the Iranian embassy. "Two workers from the Iranian embassy were expelled from the Netherlands on June 7," AIVD spokesman Hulbert Bredemeijer told AFP. "Unfortunately, I cannot divulge any details of the matter," he said. The Dutch move came well before Belgium, France and Germany this week detained six people over a plot to bomb an Iranian opposition rally on the outskirts of Paris last weekend. Belgium also requested the extradition of an Austria-based Iranian diplomat held in Germany and a man of Iranian origin in France in connection with the Paris plot. Iran said it had nothing to do with the plot described by Belgian authorities, which it called a “false flag ploy”, and said it was ready to work with all concerned parties to get to the bottom of it.
