Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe’s long wait for freedom continues but lawyers stay hopeful

The long wait for Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe and her family to learn whether she would be freed to return home to England continues with her facing a new set of charges in Iran. This is another setback for the aid worker who was only released from house arrest last weekend, after serving a five year sentence,  but not allowed to leave the country with further legal proceedings pending. There has been no official statement from the prosecutors about the next step. However Ms Zaghari-Ratcliffe's lawyers and, it is believed, those close to her in Iran, are said to be hopeful that she will be cleared of the new charges in a relatively short time.
