Iran forced down a civilian airliner on Tuesday to arrest the leader of a terrorist group it claims is backed by Britain, Israel and the United States.
Mr Moslehi also alleged that Rigi had met the then Nato secretary-general, Jaap de Hoop Scheffer, in Afghanistan in 2008, and had visited European countries.
He said agents had tracked Rigi's movements for five months, calling his arrest "a great defeat for the US and UK".

That is what I expect my government to do. That is the job of our "Intelligiance Agencies." That is exactly what they were criticized for not doing enough of before 9/11. They relied too heavily on technology and didn't have enough "spies" on the ground.
