Haleh Esfandiari freed on bail from Tehran's prison
Posted by Anita Sharma

I'd like to think that adding your names to the Free Haleh petition resulted in this surprise decision from Tehran to release Haleh. Although the picture shows that the already slim Haleh had lost weight during her three month incarceration in Tehran's Evin Prison, she's said to be doing well. Accused by the Iranian government of conspiring to topple the government, the dual national was released on $333,000 bail to the home of her 94 year-old mother in Tehran. We're not sure yet what "free on bail" means. Hopefully it means the charges are dropped and she can return to the States and continue her work at the Woodrow Wilson Center.

Thank you for your sharing! I like i very much!

It is great to know that Ms. Esfandiari is out of prison, but her status is still troubling. Thank you to the editors for keeping the world informed about this brave woman.What troubles me is my own responsibility in this matter. I cannot pretend that what my country is doing does not impact others. Ms. Esfandiari has moved freely between the US and Iran for years. Only now is there a problem.

It's your opnions which I like very much.Thanks for your post

thanks for sharing Sohbet many people are pay more attention to one's wearing than before, especially a watch. Chat .
Perhaps when you went to some place far away Chat you must borrow it from friends Sohbet you can get everything you want in this game
Chat money to invest in other industry which will return you good profit. Sohbet when you look at the surface of the watches
Egitim from the city you live in and thought you knew nobody there exsohbet

But sitting down in bomb shelters helplessly, just hoping the bombs miss, even though not any capacity to fight back, is specifically upsetting and demoralizing.

Thanks for taking the time to discuss this,would you mind updating your blog with additional information? It is extremely helpful for me
