Roxana Saberi was freed on Monday May 11, nearly Four months after she was arrested on charges of spying for the U.S in Iran. The 32 year old Roxana Saberi is a dual Iranian-American citizen and will be soon back at home in Fargo, North Dakota in United States.
As Huffington Post Reported:-
Saberi’s arrest in late January, followed by a secretive, one-day trial and a heavy prison sentence, prompted sharp U.S. criticism. Soon after, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and other officials appeared to back off, suggesting the sentence could be reversed.
On Monday, an appeals court reduced her jail term to a two-year suspended sentence, Iran’s judiciary spokesman, Ali Reza Jamshidi, told reporters. Jamshidi said she was free to leave Iran.
Saberi’s Iranian-born father Reza Saberi was elated after her release and said, “I’m very happy that she is free. Roxana is in good condition. We had expected her release but not so soon. She will be preparing to leave (Iran) tomorrow or the day after tomorrow,” he told reporters at his house in Tehran.”
So here are some of the Pictures of Roxana Saberi after the jump.
