'Sending the three Turkmens to their country was done upon an order from Iranian authorizes,' said Colonel Mohammad-Reza Saravani.
The three people had entered the Iranian waters in the Caspian Sea and were arrested by the Iranian police.
Iranian police fired warning shots and eventually arrested them; but unfortunately, in similar incidents, the Turkmen police fired directly at the Iranian sailors, that ended in their death, Colonel Saravani said.
