British Spy captured by Iran

Iranian authorities have arrested a British individual in southern Iran on charges of spying.

According to Con Coughlin,   "ever since British adventurers - be they soldiers, diplomats, travellers or spies - became a regular fixture at the heart of the Persian court in the early 19th century, it would be something of an understatement to say that the two countries have regarded each other with a healthy dose of mutual suspicion."
