IRAN - New trial for Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe
March 14, 2021: According to Al-Arabia, new charges of “propaganda against the system” made by Iran against British-Iranian national Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe, a week after she finished serving a five-year sentence, are “unacceptable,” Britain said Sunday. “It is unacceptable that Iran has chosen to continue a second wholly arbitrary case against Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe,” Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab wrote on Twitter. “She must be allowed to return to her family in the UK without delay. We continue to do all we can to support her,” he added. “Her trial was held at branch 15 of the Revolutionary court. Her charge is propaganda against the system. Legally, the court should announce the verdict in a week, but it is up to the judge. I am very hopeful that she will be acquitted,” her lawyer Hojjat Kermani told the Iranian Emtedad website.
