On the sidelines of the “Iqtedar” plan, Sardar Hossein Rahimi, the police commander of Greater Tehran, told reporters on the increase in the volume of weapons in Tehran and stressed the need to increase the punishment of those involved in handling firearms.
In response to IRNA’s question about the use of weapons in the Tehran and its discoveries, Rahimi said: “Unfortunately, the volume of weapons in the capital has increased, and we have announced a report about it to the relevant officials and agencies.” We believe that it should be taken more serious in all crimes related to weapons, including guns, ie war weapons, short barrels, long barrels, and the punishment of criminals and all persons related to handling arms and weapons.
He stressed: In the fourth phase of the plan to deal with “authority” thugs, 398 people who were engaged in thugging at different levels were arrested. The volume of weapons and the presence of firearms in the capital has increased. About 26 weapons and over 10,000 war bullets were discovered in this plan!
Rahimi in response to the question whether the increase in weapons in the capital also has a security flaw or not? He said: “Such an issue is also raised and it will definitely has a security impact.”
