Police in Iran are reported to have taken 14 squirrels into custody - because they are suspected of spying.
The rodents were found near the Iranian border allegedly equipped with eavesdropping devices.The reports have come from the official Islamic Republic News Agency (IRNA). When asked to confirm the story, the national police chief said: "I have heard about it, but I do not have precise information."
The IRNA said that the squirrels were kitted out by foreign intelligence services - but were captured two weeks ago by police officers. A Foreign Office said: "The story is nuts." But then they would do wouldn't they...
If true, this would not be the first time animals have been used to spy. During the Second World War, the Allied Forces used pigeons to fly vital intelligence out of occupied France. More recently, US marines stationed in Kuwait have used chickens as a low-tech chemical detection system.
Sorry chaps, when we ran the story about aggressive squirrels we didn't know that it was actually part of an unarmed combat training session. If you decide the boys around with their anal probes we can give you the contact details of everyone who commented as a plea bargain.
But don't let that stop you...
All that training and those dopey buggers ruin it all.
