Charity worker imprisoned in Iran ‘needs medical help’

The husband of a British Iranian woman detained in Iran on spying charges is calling for her release.

Nazanin Zaghari Ratcliffe was arrested at Tehran airport in April 2016 and was later sentenced to five years.

Richard Ratcliffe made the plea on his wife’s 40th birthday, saying she is in urgent need of medical help.
