IRAN: U.S. ANALYST ARRESTED IN TEHRAN <javascript:aumenta();> <javascript:diminuisci();> Tehran, 9 May (AKI) - A US Middle East expert of Iranian descent who had been prevented from leaving Iran since last December has been arrested and is detained at Tehran's Evin prison, the Washington-based Woodrow Wilson International Center at which she heads the Middle Eastern programme said Wednesday. Hales Esfandiari, who has double US-Iranian citizenship, left Iran in 1979 but had been returning twice a year for the past ten years to visit her 93-year-old mother, her husband Saul Bakhash, an historian at the George Mason University in Fairfax, Virginia, said. Last year another academic with double Iranian-Canadian citizenship, Ramin Jahanbegloo, was detained in Iran for a few months and released after he 'confessed' that foreign agents could have used his work for political ends. Esfandiari had organized on behalf of her think tank conferences on the Iranian nuclear programme and on the future of reformists in Iran.
