MANAMA – (AFP) – Bahraini authorities have arrested one of its nationals suspected of having links with an alleged spy cell busted in Kuwait and said to be working for Iran.<\/p>\n

The man's name appeared in Kuwait's investigation of the group's activities, the interior ministry said in a statement released late on Monday.<\/p>\n

"Specialised security authorities have arrested a Bahraini suspect after his name was mentioned in the investigation of the case of the spy cell," said General Mohammed Buhamud, the ministry's undersecretary for legal affairs.<\/p>\n

The suspect was referred to prosecution which has kept him in custody, the official said in the statement.<\/p>\n

"Harming the security of any Gulf country is an attack against the security of all countries of the Gulf Cooperation Council," he added, without disclosing further details on the suspect.<\/p>\n

Kuwait said last week that several suspects were being questioned in connection with a busted spy cell, but it fell short of confirming press reports that they were spying for Iran's Revolutionary Guards.<\/p>\n

At least seven people, including members of Kuwait's army and police, were under arrest, according to the Kuwaiti daily Al-Qabas, which added that the security forces were hunting for several other suspects.<\/p>\n

The paper cited a senior security source as saying the men had confessed to monitoring and photographing Kuwaiti and US military sites for the paramilitary Revolutionary Guards. Iran has categorically denied the charges.<\/p>\n

Saudi Interior Minister Prince Nayef bin Abdul Aziz, meanwhile, last week denied that the security of the Arab monarchies in the Gulf had been comprised.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
