Ratcliffe Urges UK to Act on Detained Couple in Iran

Richard Ratcliffe, husband of Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe, urges the British government to take decisive action to bring home Craig and Lindsay Foreman, a couple detained in Iran on espionage charges. Ratcliffe, who led a campaign for his wifes release, argues that the governments current approach to state hostage-taking is unsustainable and places too much burden on the victims. The Foreman family claims the couple entered Iran with valid visas and a pre-approved itinerary. The couples son, Joe Bennett, is now campaigning for their release and has revealed they started a hunger strike to seek better conditions. The Daily News Now! — Every city. Every story. AI-powered.
