Well said @alexakabob1
'Gabriella had to walk around the prison with a sack over her head so she didn't know where mummy was!'
After Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe was criticised for 'not being grateful enough' one of her family members called @MrJamesOB to explain the 'harsh reality' she faced in Iran.

So lovely to have uplifting conversations with Richard and Nazanin today.
They are both relentless in their pursuit of justice and raised the plight of Morad Tahbaz with me. Here I was hoping to sleep for a week…
Here’s their first family selfie! #NazaninIsFree

No place like home
Thank you to everyone who made this possible, to all of the care and campaigning, and diplomatic efforts.
You have made us whole.

Nazanin’s plane took off from Oman just over half an hour ago and she’s due to arrive in the UK this evening.
Here she is on the plane - the final step in what has been a six year long ordeal.

The dignity of #RichardRatcliffe is in stark contrast to so many
‘We live in the future not in the past’
‘Homecoming is a journey not an arrival’
‘This will be a chapter in our lives but there are many more chapters to come’

Nazanin and Anoosheh have arrived safely in Oman. Sincere thanks for the hard work and good faith in Tehran and London that made this possible. Soon they will be with their loved ones at home. We hope this result will bring further progress in the dialogue between the parties.

I am very pleased to confirm that the unfair detention of Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe and Anoosheh Ashoori in Iran has ended today, and they will now return to the UK.
It's been 6 long years - and I can't believe I can FINALLY share this photo.
Nazanin is now in the air flying away from 6 years of hell in Iran.
My heart goes out to Gabriella and Richard, as her long journey back home to them gets closer by the minute.

I can confirm Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe and Anoosheh Ashoori will return to the UK today, and Morad Tahbaz has been released from prison on furlough. They will be reunited with their families later today.
We will continue to work to secure Morad's departure from Iran.

Word of the day, for Nazanin, is the French ‘retrouvailles’: the joy of reuniting after a long, long time apart.

Nazanin is at the airport in Tehran and on her way home.
