A British man detained in Tehran urged Prime Minister Keir Starmer to “step out of the shadows” and publicly challenge the spying charges against him and his wife, who now fear for their lives more than three weeks into the Iran war, Reuters reports.
Craig Foreman and his wife Lindsay were sentenced to 10 years in prison in February after Iran accused them of spying for Britain and Israel. The couple have repeatedly denied the charges.
In a voice message recorded from Evin prison in Tehran and shared with Reuters, Craig Foreman said he and his wife were living in “a war zone” and accused the British government of failing to defend their innocence.
