More than 100 people in Iran have been arrested in connection to the suspected poisoning of thousands of school girls in the country in recent months.
Iran’s Interior Ministry said in a statement that arrests and investigations have taken place across numerous cities, including Tehran. Toxic gas attacks have been impacting thousands of students, mostly girls, since November, when the first poisoning took place.
“Initial inquiries show that a number of these people, out of mischief or adventurism and with the aim of shutting down classrooms and influenced by the created psychological atmosphere, have taken measures such as using harmless and smelly substances,” the Ministry wrote in the statement.
