Irans Revolutionary Commander Major General Mohammad Ali Jafari accused "Pakistans security forces" of supporting the perpetrators of a suicide bombing that killed 27 Guards on Wednesday. "Pakistans government, which has housed these anti-revolutionaries … knows where they are and they are supported by Pakistans security forces," said Jafari, referring to Jaish al-Adl (Army of Justice), which has claimed the attack. "If (the Pakistan government) does not punish them, we will retaliate against this anti-revolutionary force, and whatever Pakistan sees will be the consequence of its support for them," he warned in remarks aired Saturday on state TV. Wednesday’s bombing targeted a busload of Revolutionary Guards in the volatile southeastern province of Sistan-Baluchistan, which straddles the border with Pakistan. The attack was one of the deadliest on Iranian security forces in recent years.
