Amiri, 34, back in UK after Iran’s supreme court overturned 2019 conviction and 10-year prison sentence
An Iranian woman who worked for the British Council has been freed from detention in Evin prison and returned to the UK after being acquitted of spying charges.
Aras Amiri’s lawyers had mounted an appeal to the Iranian supreme court that led to her release. She is now at an undisclosed address in the UK.
