NAZANIN ZAGHARI-RATCLIFFE called for the release of other dual nationals “unjustly” detained in Iran today. 

Speaking publicly for the first time since her return home, the 43-year-old hit out at the British government for taking six years to secure her release from detention. 

“What’s happened now should have happened six years ago. I shouldn’t have been in prison for six years,” she told a press conference.
