Iran says it intends to prosecute 127 people for alleged involvement or cooperation with the assassination of its Quds Force terror chief Qassem Soleimani two years ago by the US administration of Donald Trump.

According to Fars News, which is run by the country’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, a judiciary spokesperson has said the country sent 11 letters to nine countries, asking them to take measures against the alleged culprits.
