[Reuters] Iran has made a request to Interpol for the arrest of five Argentines, the official Iranian IRNA news agency said on Tuesday.

Prosecutor General Qorbanali Dorri-Najafabadi ordered the arrest via Interpol of five Argentines, including a former judge and a former interior minister, on charges including making accusations against Iran "based on baseless and faked information" and bribery.
