TEHRAN, Feb. 16 (Xinhua) -- Pakistan is "providing shelter for the terrorists" who committed crimes in Iran, chief commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) said on Saturday.

"The government of Pakistan should be accountable for the crimes that the terrorist groups committed in Iran's Sistan and Baluchestan Province," said the chief Mohammad Ali Jafari said.

The IRGC commander was referring to the recent deadly suicide attack claimed by the Jaish al-Adl Sunni rebel group in southeastern Iran in which 27 IRGC forces were killed and 13 others were injured.

Over the past years, Sistan and Baluchestan Province, bordering Pakistan, has been the scene of bloody clashes between the Iranian security forces and the Jasih al-Adl group. Enditem
