Nov 25 (Reuters) – A court in Nigeria on Thursday charged a member of Iran‘s Revolutionary Guards and three Nigerians over a shipment of mortars and rockets seized in the main port of Lagos last month.
Azim Adhajani, identified in court documents as a Tehran-based businessman and member of Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), was charged alongside a suspected Nigerian accomplice with the importation of prohibited firearms.
The two men and a further two Nigerian suspects were also charged with conspiring to export the illegal shipment to Banjul, Gambia.
