Iran heaps scorn on UK after ‘spy tunnel’ find
‘Iranian newspapers have long poured scorn on the debauchery and deviousness of the British Foreign Office.
But now the criticism has been cranked up further with the alleged discovery of a secret tunnel used to sneak “spies and prostitutes” into the British embassy in Tehran.
The passage was been uncovered by workmen, according to reports.
Labourers digging foundations for a carpet shop opposite the embassy on an avenue in the heart of the capital stumbled across what was described as a “huge” underground passageway. [..]
When in 1994 Iran claimed a listening device was found in the wall of its embassy in London, Britain was denounced as the “land of spies and pirates”.’
