Police in Sistan and Baluchistan apprehended a man caught laughing at injured officers following a Jaish ul-Adl militant group attack.
The April 11 arrest was announced by the province's police chief, Dost Ali Jalilian.
The man is accused of "mocking and insulting the holy body of the martyr at the terrorist attack scene."
Jalilian stated the arrested individual will "face legal proceedings after investigation by judicial authorities."
The arrest follows another on April 10 by Isfahan's Police Intelligence Organization.
The unidentified individual is accused of attempting to create and distribute a "disrespectful clip" about the victims of the attack on the Iranian consulate in Damascus.
These arrests come amidst a rise in attacks by the Jaish ul-Adl, a militant group responsible for recent casualties in the region.
Six police officers were killed in the latest attack on Tuesday.
