Iran: body


Three, last month by the Jondallahgroupb in Sistan-e-Baluchestan province kidnapped Iranian policemen, have been freed by Pakistan policeofficers in Pakistan. A fourth man probably is dead.
The Pakistan police was tipped-off and found the abducted Iranians.
The men told that a fourth man was killed several days earlier, but they didn't know where the body was.


For the first time since their discovery the 'salt mummies' of Chehr Abad are exhibited. The exhibition is at the Rakhtshur Khaneh Museum in Iran's northwest province of Zanjan.
The mummies have been stored away for research since the first mummy was unearthed in 1993.
Up till now five 'saltmen'are found. Archeologists have revealed that two of the salt men lived in the Sassanid era (226 BC - 651 AD), while the other three may have lived some 500 years earlier.
The mummies were formed as a result of the naturally occurring but rare environmental conditions found in the salt mine.
Chehr Abad saltmine in Iran is one of the most archeologically rich sites, that more salt mummies could still be uncovered and that the archeological potential of this site is far from exhausted.
