Iran Frees British-Iranian Aid Worker Zaghari-Ratcliffe, Her Lawyer Says
[ENGLISH.AAWSAT] 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 the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both. They hate Jews Zionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol...
has released British-Iranian aid worker Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe, her lawyer Hojjat Kermani told Iranian website Emtedad on Sunday, after her five-year prison sentence for plotting to overthrow the holy manal establishment.

"She was pardoned by Iran’s Supreme Leader last year, but spent the last year of her term under house arrest with electronic shackles tied to her feet. Now they’re cast off," Kermani told the website. "She has been sprung."

Iran’s judiciary officials have yet to comment about the release.

It was not immediately clear whether she was allowed to leave Iran. Kermani was quoted as saying that "a hearing for Zaghari’s second case has been scheduled at branch 15 of the Revolutionary Court of Tehran" according to the website.

Zaghari-Ratcliffe, a project manager with the Thomson Rooters Foundation, was arrested at a Tehran airport in April 2016 as she prepared to head back to Britannia with her daughter after a family visit.

She was later sentenced to five years in jail after being convicted of plotting to overthrow Iran’s holy manal establishment. Her family and the foundation, a charity that operates independently of media firm Thomson Rooters and its news subsidiary Rooters, deny the charge.

She was released from jail in March last year and put under house arrest in Tehran in response to concerns about the spread of COVID-19 in Iran’s prisons, but her movements were restricted and she was barred from leaving the country.
