TEHRAN — Commander of the Iranian Police, Brig. Gen. Ahmad-Reza Radan, has been on a rare visit to Moscow since Tuesday, where he is discussing policing cooperation with the country's most senior security officials.
After Radan's meeting with Russia's National Guard Commander, Viktor Zolotov, Iran's state-broadcaster reported that the two sides had inked a "long-term deal on policing and law enforcement."
During the visit, according to Iranian media, Radan will see up close "Russian police's capacities in combating organized crime."
The Iranian officer also sat down with Russia's most senior security man, Nikolai Patrushev, who has been leading the country's Security Council for 15 years. A report by Nour News, the outlet run by Iran's Supreme National Security Council, said Radan had discussed with Patrushev cooperation on "special services," without elaborating on what those services were.
