About this event
Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe, British-Iranian author, was on holiday in Iran in 2016 visiting her parents with her then 22-month-old daughter when she was arrested at Tehran airport and held on national security charges.
She was held for almost 6 years as a prisoner for diplomatic leverage, as part of an ongoing geopolitical struggle dating back to the 1970s. Her husband Richard fought tirelessly and relentlessly for her release.
In conversation with their friend, Sir Terry Waite, about their ordeal and life after Nazanin’s release.
