"Iran’s supreme leader tells ex-president Ahmadinejad not to run again" by Thomas Erdbrink New York Times September 26, 2016
TEHRAN — A Canadian-Iranian retired professor was released from an Iranian prison on ‘‘humanitarian grounds’’ and flown out of the country, Iran’s state-run news agency said, ending her months of detention alongside other dual nationals swept up by hard-liners in the security services.
Homa Hoodfar was flown to the Arab Gulf nation of Oman, the brief report from the IRNA news agency said. Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau hailed her release in a statement, thanking Italy, Switzerland, and Oman for their help in the matter.
Hoodfar, 65, was questioned and barred from leaving Iran in March after traveling to the country to visit family after the death of her husband, the Associated Press reported. Her family said she has been held in Tehran’s Evin Prison since June. Hoodfar until recently taught anthropology and sociology at Montreal’s Concordia University.
In July, Iran announced indictments for Hoodfar and three others, without providing any details about the accusations. In recent weeks, Hoodfar’s supporters described her health as deteriorating while she was in solitary confinement, saying she was ‘‘barely able to walk or talk.’’
Several dual nationals have been arrested in the year since world powers reached the nuclear deal with Iran to limit its uranium enrichment in exchange for the lifting of economic sanctions. Analysts have suggested Iranian hard-liners hope to use them as bargaining chips with the West.
In a separate development Monday, many sanctions remain in place even after the signing last year of a nuclear deal, primarily because of what the United States says is Iran’s hard-liners' support for terrorism and human rights violations.
Tehran denies those accusations, but no European or US bank will finance business with Iran as long as the sanctions remain in effect, unless the US Treasury specifically certifies the deal, as it did for recent contracts with Airbus and Boeing....
