A British woman who suffered a six-year prison ordeal in Iran has spoken to Southam College’s Amnesty Group.

Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe was arrested while she was visiting her family in Iran in 2016 over allegations - which she has always vehemently denied – of plotting to overthrow the Iranian government.

She was eventually released and able to return home in 2022.
