TEHRAN – Iran on Sunday accused U.S. and Israeli agents of tricking Iranian nuclear scientists abroad into giving away crucial information, newspapers reported.

The comments by Intelligence Minister Ali Yunesi came days after an Iranian defector identified as Alireza Assar told the Iran Focus Web site Tehran was close to getting an atom bomb.

Tehran insists such assertions are lies and that it is making atomic fuel only for nuclear power stations. Washington argues the fuel is for warheads.

“America and Israel are trying to get close to (our scientists) by establishing emotional ties, then they put them into a situation where they are forced to give information,” Yunesi was quoted as saying in the Sharq daily and on agencies.

Yunesi advised Iranian scientists abroad to be suspicious and vigilant, and not to be distracted from the purpose of their visit.

Iran has been rebuked for failing to disclose key parts of its nuclear program, and many revelations on its technology have come from intelligence sources.
