Tehran, Nov 30, IRNA -- Iran's Charge d'Affaires to Baghdad Hassan
Kazemi Qomi said on Tuesday that Tehran and Baghdad were holding
negotiations to arrange pilgrimage tours for nationals of
both countries after observing special laws and regulations.
Qomi told IRNA on Tuesday that once Tehran reaches agreement
with Baghdad on the pilgrimage tours, some 3,000 Iranians would head
for Iraq for pilgrimage.
He said the number of pilgrims would definitely increase in
pace with the speed of reconstruction in Iraq and increase in
facilities in the holy sites.
He warned pilgrims against illegal entry to Iraq, saying a number
of individuals entering Iraqi soil illegally had been arrested. He
said that talks had been held with Iraqi officials concerned to secure
the release of this group of people.
