Tuesday's report by the semi-official Tasnim agency cited the Revolutionary Guard commander for Khuzestan province, Gen. Hassan Shahvarpour, as saying the gunmen who killed two policemen on Monday have been arrested.
He did not elaborate.
On Monday, gunmen attacked a police station in Ahvaz, setting off a shootout that also wounded four policemen.
