An Iranian-American environmentalist who was recently released from an Iranian prison has been taken back to jail, one of his daughters told a news conference in London on Monday.
Britain said last week that Morad Tahbaz, who also holds British citizenship and whose family say he was born in Britain, had been released from prison on furlough on the same day aid worker Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe and Anoosheh Ashoori left Iran to return to Britain.
Britain's foreign ministry said on Friday it had been told by Iran that Tahbaz, 66, had been taken back to Evin prison in order to fit an ankle bracelet. It said earlier on Monday that Tahbaz had since been released to a residential location.
