Germany's Siemens denies Iranian nuclear sabotage claim

[Major Shaitan Singh]

Interesting claim made by Iran....and if true Siemens selling banned equipment?

German engineering company Siemens has denied allegations that it planted explosive devices inside nuclear equipment destined for Iran.

Siemens said it has "no business ties to the Iranian nuclear programme".

An Iranian MP said the devices had been discovered before they could explode.

Iran is under UN sanctions and the MP did not say where the equipment had come from. Tehran is engaged in a standoff with Western countries which suspect it is building a nuclear bomb.

Siemens already sold centrifuges blueprints to US before (to use for hacking), so it wouldnt be surprising if their "peaceful" cooperation continues. However in this case question is how Siemens parts deal went through - since Iran most likely bought parts in the black market, thats why Siemens claims they "know nothing about it".

Most likely explanation: its a possibility CIA moles found out Iran is looking for the particular equipment, and together with Siemens supplied through the 3rd party booby-trapped parts.
