Iran exiles ‘planned to kill informers’

AN Iranian opposition group under scrutiny in France planned to assassinate former members suspected of betraying the movement, according to a report by France’s counterintelligence agency.

The report by the agency known as the DST also said the group, the Mujahedeen Khalq, recently discussed getting its supporters to commit suicide to draw attention to their cause.

A London-based spokesman for the group said it rejects "every single allegation" in the DST report.
