Tehran (AFP) - Jason Rezaian,
The Washington Post's Tehran correspondent, and Saeed Abedini, a pastor
from Idaho, are among four dual Iranian nationals freed by Iran, the
Fars News Agency reported Saturday.
Rezaian
and Abedini are both Iranian-American citizens. Iran's judiciary did
not name the four dual-nationals who were released as part of a prisoner
swap.
But Fars, citing its judicial reporter, said Rezaian and Abedini were two of the four set free.
Seven
Iranian prisoners held in the United States will be freed in exchange
for the release of the four Iranian-American nationals, an informed
source told state television.
