The Cambridge-instructed scholastic was going on an Australian visa when she was kept at Tehran air terminal in 2018 as she attempted to leave following a gathering.

She has been in isolation and on a few craving strikes, and she is said to have been beaten for attempting to comfort new detainees by passing notes and keeping in touch with them on jail dividers.

In letters carried out of Evin jail in January, the speaker said she had "never been a covert operative" and dreaded for her emotional well-being. She said she had dismissed a proposal from Iran to turn into a covert operative.

"I am not a government agent. I have never been a government agent, and I have no enthusiasm to work for a spying association in any nation," she composed.
