Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, if he will publish a response to the latest charges against Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe following her appearance before the Iranian Revolutionary Court on November 2017.

As with her court appearance in October, we have never had sight or clarity over the exact charges Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe is facing and therefore cannot categorically say whether those it is reported she was subject to on Saturday 4 November are new or the same as those put to her previously. We are urgently seeking clarification from the Iranian authorities. The Foreign Secretary spoke with Foreign Minister Zarif on 7 November, who confirmed that any recent developments in the case were unrelated to the Foreign Secretary's remarks at the Foreign Affairs Committee.
