Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe has temporary prison leave extended
It will run until April 18th
The husband of Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe has said her temporary leave from prison in Iran has been extended.
Richard Ratcliffe said his wife's father had been told her temporary release from Evin prison in Tehran - granted in response to the Covid-19 pandemic - had been extended by two weeks and will now run until April 18.
Mr Ratcliffe added that his wife's file has been put forward to the Iranian Prosecutor General to be considered for clemency.
The British-Iranian woman has been living in relative isolation at her parents' house in Tehran while the country gets to grips with the outbreak.
She has to wear an ankle tag during the furlough, and can only go within a 300-metre range of her parents' home.
