Be glad to. Well not glad to because this should never have happened.
Praying that this lovely family are reunited soon. Bless them

Notreallyarsed · 27/12/2017 20:56

What Awwlook said, with bells on. I sincerely hope that she is reunited with her family soon.

hmmwhatatodo · 27/12/2017 20:57

Her name is Nazanin by the way. Agree with your sentiments though! Wishing she is released any moment.

honeysucklejasmine · 27/12/2017 20:58

Has there been an update on her situation?

RoderickRules · 27/12/2017 20:58

I’m in

ScouseQueen · 27/12/2017 21:00

In. I've been following her situation for over a year now since reading an Amnesty report about her.

I've asked for the spelling in the thread title to be corrected.

ScouseQueen · 27/12/2017 21:02

Last I read was the announcement from Iran that she was now eligible for early release. That prompted a flurry of hope that she might get home for Christmas, but no more developments yet.

Showergel1 · 27/12/2017 21:03

Been following her story closely in the Guardian. Must have been a nightmare having Bojo go over there to 'fight' her cause but her husband seems to be very stoic. I'd have been in despair.

PerpendicularVincent · 27/12/2017 21:03

I so hope she is released soon.

AnneLovesGilbert · 27/12/2017 21:04

I’m in. My heart goes out to her, her parents, her daughter and her brave husband, all the people fighting for them. Hope they’re reunited soon.

ButchyRestingFace · 27/12/2017 21:05

Here’s hoping she gets released for January 1st. 🤞🙏

WorkingItOutAsIGo · 27/12/2017 21:06

I’m in.

ChasedByBees · 27/12/2017 21:07

I'm praying she gets released soon and their family can be reunited.

teaandakitkat · 27/12/2017 21:07

I'm in. I hope she's free soon. It must be hideous for her and her family.

Tistheseason17 · 27/12/2017 21:13

I'm in. Nice thread x

Hygge · 27/12/2017 21:14

I really hope she's home soon.

This entire time must have been a living nightmare for her and her family.

Much love to them all.

onalongsabbatical · 27/12/2017 21:20

Most definitely. Poor woman. Heart-breaking. Makes me so sick to live on the same planet as anyone who can do this to the innocent mother of a small and innocent child.

SchadenfreudePersonified · 27/12/2017 21:23

I'm in, too.

This woman should never have been imprisoned.

Praying for her release, her physical, mental and spiritual health, and for her family who must be worried to distraction.

brizzledrizzle · 27/12/2017 21:24

Apparently, instead of releasing Nazanin, the government confirmed that they were going to uphold the death sentence on an Iranian-Swedish (?) scientist because they suspected him of working with Mossad - as if a scientist with dual nationality who had worked fpr Mossad would take up a job at Tehran University.

My father used to work in Iran, I'm so glad that he doesn't any more.

Doobigetta · 27/12/2017 21:26

I'm in, I've been following this story since someone first posted about it here. I hope Nazanin is freed and reunited with her family very soon Flowers

RaindropsAndSparkles · 27/12/2017 21:27

Shall we try and keep comments neutral please.

I'm in. My heart goes out to her and her family. Her daughter isn't much older than my son and I can't bear to imagine what it feels like to be separated, and the impact it will have on the whole family.

Fishface77 · 27/12/2017 21:37

I'm in.
Hope she's home soon x

ThisIsSylviaDaisyPouncer · 27/12/2017 22:30

I’m in too. My heart goes out to her and her family. Flowers

scrabbler3 · 27/12/2017 22:35

I'm in.

I've got a good feeling about this. I think she'll be home very soon. She has an amazing family awaiting her.
