British Council worker Aras Amiri, 34, is condemned to TEN YEARS in an Iranian jail

[cancel2 2022]

If the nasty Joos did something like this Moonatic would be squawking about it constantly. One thing I can guarantee though, the Left will remain resolutely silent on this issue. What a bunch of Shiites!!

Miss Amiri, a Kingston University student who lived in London for more than a decade, claimed in her letter that she was arrested because she refused to cooperate with Iranian intelligence officials who wanted her to spy for them in Britain.

She said: ‘I directly rejected their offer for cooperation and told them that I can only work in my own field and nothing else.’

The Iranian office of the British Council – which promotes our cultural, scientific and educational interests abroad and promotes international cooperation – was closed by the authorities in 2009, in protest at the launch of the BBC Persian Service.

Miss Amiri is being held in Evin prison in the capital, where British-Iranian national Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe is also serving a sentence for alleged espionage.

The chief executive of the British Council, Sir Ciarán Devane, responded to Miss Amiri’s upheld jail term with ‘dismay’.

S expected not one avowed liberal will go near this, they are far more concerned about a bunch of anti-Semites in Congress.

If you will try to colonise a Country and bully its people, this kind of thing will happen, let's face it.

What a truly moronic comment, yet you claim to be intelligent.

Well so far only the Welsh Windbag has commented, notably no women why is that?

Uncalled for, do you think it's funny?

I think that women tend to shun you, maggot. It's your eurotophobic ..er.................character.

I'll chip in though. Definitely a very severe punishment which doesn't fit the crime. Also politically motivated. You really shouldn't have pirated their oil tanker for your Izraeli chums.

And you started a PERSIAN broadcasting service aimed at destabilizing Iran ? Tch, tch. Nasty wee Brits, aincha.


So...................are you going to play nice and get her released- or are you going to allow Boris the Blunderer to get another ten added on ?

My fiancee is in an Iranian prison, a victim of the depravity of international relations
James Tyson

As I write, my fiancee, Aras Amiri, is being held in an Iranian jail on false charges of espionage. A British Council employee, she’s caught in the middle of two global powers who refuse, or don’t know how, to talk to each other.

Aras is an Iranian citizen, and by fabricating untruths (lies that the Iranian ministry of intelligence knows to be utterly false), and imprisoning her through a bogus trial and an appeal without legal representation, the Iranian government is simply imprisoning its own citizen, shooting itself in the foot to spite an enemy. It is no coincidence that Aras’s appeal was rejected and her 10-year sentence confirmed on the same day that a Gibraltar court made its decision on the release of the Grace 1 tanker, a ship that British troops hijacked at the behest of the US government.
