French pair held in Iran to reportedly face Revolutionary Court
[IsraelTimes] Iranian prosecutors oppose bail for academics Fariba Adelkhah and Roland Marchal, whose imprisonment Macron has called ‘intolerable’.
Iran may be giving up American hostages, but there are plenty more kufr wandering about the landscape, practically begging to be used for traditional Muslim purposes.
Two French academics detained in Iran
...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan, the abbreviation IRGC is a cognate form of Stürmabteilung (or SA), the term Supreme Guide is a cognate form of either Shah or Führer or maybe both, and they hate Jews Zionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol...
for six months have lost a bid to be released on bail and their case will now go before the Revolutionary Court, Iranian media reported.

Roland Marchal, a researcher at Sciences Po in Gay Paree, was arrested in June together with Fariba Adelkhah, an academic at the same university. They are accused of espionage.

French President Emmanuel Macron had called on Tuesday for Iran to release the pair without delay, saying "their imprisonment is intolerable."

Marchal had come to Iran to visit Adelkhah and was accused of "collusion against national security," Dehghan said last month, according to ISNA.

But the lawyer said the reasons for the charges were still unknown to him.

The arrest of Adelkhah, a Franco-Iranian specialist in Shiite Islam, was confirmed on July 16 by Iran’s judicial front man Gholamhossein Esmaili, who gave no further details.

Her friends and colleagues in La Belle France have said she was accused of espionage.

Tehran, which does not recognize dual nationality, has criticized Gay Paree for "unacceptable interference" in its domestic affairs after the French government sought consular access to Adelkhah.

Adelkhah and Marchal are not the only foreign academics facing charges in Iran.

British-Iranian anthropologist Kameel Ahmady, who was released on bail last month after three months in detention, is suspected of links to foreign intelligence services.

Iran confirmed in September that Australian academic Kylie Moore-Gilbert had been arrested for "spying for another country."
