'We think that the documents released by AP have been disclosed by the IAEA,' Behrouz Kamalvandi said, adding the information had to be kept secret.

Kamalvandi told IRNA Sunday that the letter will be sent to the IAEA by Iran's representative to that Agency.

A member of Iran's Majlis National Security and Foreign Policy Commission said on Saturday that 'serious security measures should be taken to prevent the IAEA and Western sides from leaking Iran's secret documents.'

Commenting on talks with Russia to sell 40 tons of heavy water, Kamalvandi said the negotiations about the issue are underway.

The official said the price of the heavy water has not be finalized yet.
