"The leader of a terrorist group made up of deviants... was killed in an ambush along with his No. 2," the ministry said in a statement carried by the Mehr news agency. It did not say when the ambush happened or name the rebel group but it said the slain men were suspected of murdering a local judicial official and of carrying out several armed robberies. "This group intended to use the money from the robberies to increase terrorist acts in Sunni-populated towns in the west of the country," the statement said.
