Anoosheh Ashoori
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, when he last discussed with his Iranian counterpart the case of the hon. Member for Lewisham East's constituent, Anoosheh Ashoori.
- Answer
-
The Prime Minister raised his concerns about dual national detentions with President Rouhani on 24 September, the Foreign Secretary did so with Foreign Minister Zarif on 17 September and Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon hosted an event at the UN General Assembly on 25 September to call out the failings of the Iranian judiciary. I raised my concerns about these cases with my Iranian counterparts when I visited Tehran in June.
