Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe's prison term was disclosed Friday by her employer, the Thomson Reuters Foundation. "This is a very serious condemnation that comes without any charges or evidence being made public," foundation CEO Monique Villa said in a statement. She's being held in Kerman prison in southeast Iran. She had been visiting family in Iran with her 22-month-old daughter when she was detained at the airport in Tehran as she checked in to fly back to the UK. Her daughter was placed in the care of Zaghari-Ratcliffe's parents in Iran.
