The UK is delaying a deal with Iran to release Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe because they're afraid of angering Trump, say her lawyers

Iranian-British aid worker Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe is seen in an undated photograph handed out by her familyNazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe's lawyers say the UK is delaying efforts to secure her release in order to avoid angering Trump.She was visting family when she was arrested for allegedly "plotting to topple the Iranian government."However, her lawyers have accused Boris Johnson's government of not taking all necessary steps to bring her back to the UK.

In a seven-page letter to UK Defence Secretary Ben Wallace, lawyers representing Zaghari-Ratcliffe have accused the UK government of failing to take all necessary steps to secure her release from Iran for fear of undermining President Trump's hardline approach to Iran,The lawyers say the UK government has hindered Zaghari-Ratcliffe's release by avoiding paying Iran £400 million debt incurred by a cancelled arms deal in the 1970s.

"There has been a new wave of forced confessions and prisoners being tortured, a new programme of family members of activists and prisoners being arrested, more instances of second sentences being levelled against cellmates of Nazanin who would otherwise be eligible for release," it said.
