'spy' for Iran arrested after key military base monitoring

"A British national has been taken into custody in Cyprus on charges linked to suspected
spying and terrorism. Authorities believe the individual was monitoring RAF Akrotiri on behalf of
Iran. The base is central to the UK's ongoing mission targeting Islamic State (ISIS) fighters in Syria and Iraq, serving as a launch point for related operations.
The unnamed suspect, said to be of
Azerbaijani heritage, reportedly has connections to Iran’s elite Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.
Investigators say the man was residing in an apartment in Limassol’s Zakaki district, a short distance from the base. He was allegedly seen near RAF Akrotiri with a camera equipped with a telephoto lens and in possession of three mobile phones." msn
