TEHRAN The British government arrested two Muslims announced the London-based daily Sunday Times said Tuesday.
The arrests took place following the vast activities of the Muslims around the world against the Zionist regime.
The British government is harassing the Muslims under baseless accusations.
In another development, Britain's domestic security agency, MI5, is being sued for bugging a car used by Sinn Fein leaders, Gerry Adams and Martin McGuinness during last December's sensitive review of the Northern Ireland peace process, it was reported here Tuesday.
The owner of the car, understood to be the wife of Martin Lynch, who was convicted for arms offenses in the early 1980s, is demanding damages for breach of privacy, according to the Guardian newspaper quoting security sources.
IRNA quoted the daily as reportimg that MI5 was vigorously contesting the claim for damages by defending its action under the 1994 intelligence service act, which states that no interference with property "shall be unlawful" if it is authorized by a ministerial warrant.
Former Northern Ireland secretary Mo Mowlam made a rare admission on BBC TV in July that she had sanctioned the bugging of the car to "save lives." Adams and McGuinness used the year-old Ford Mondeo regularly during negotiations to break the deadlock over the suspension of Northern Ireland's newly devolved executive at the end of last year before finding the bug.
At the time, Adams described the bugging as a "hugely serious breach of faith" by the British government and accused the intelligence service of attempting to sabotage the peace process.
The car was found to be equipped with aerials, a digitally- enhanced transmission system and a digital tracking device, which could be picked up by satellite.
Suspicions that the car was bugged were apparently aroused when Mondeo was stopped at a Northern Ireland police roadblock last December, when the driver was detained.
