Iranian human rights activist: 'Free forever'
Tehran, Iran (CNN) - Nasrin Sotoudeh, a prominent Iranian human rights advocate, was among several prisoners released Wednesday from a Tehran prison where she had been jailed since 2010.
"I'm glad, but I'm worried for my friends in prison," she told CNN's Christiane Amanpour in a telephone interview soon after her release, citing other political and human rights activists who remain in prison.
Sotoudeh said authorities at the notorious Evin Prison initially told her she would be allowed out on a short break. They then put her into a car.
It was only after she had been driven out of the gates that one of the prison heads told her, "No, you are free forever, and that's why we're taking you home," she said.

Well thank goodness something good has happened from Iran in spite of Israel!
Forever will be a rather short time if she keeps talking to media.
What has this got to do with Israel?
Oh I forgot. Everything is Israel's fault. I have a cold with a sore throat right now. Israel's fault.
And Iran. Iran's so far away. And Iran. She couldn't get away. Couldn't get away.
Agree@chrissy.
And then Iran is not the only place where such incarcerations take place in the M.East or elsewhere.
As for Israel, frustrated by failing to push US into Syrian war they have started clamoring for US military action against Iran again.
Let us see if M/s Graham,McCain,Cantor,King & Co get the cue.
Lets not forget tomorrow is the family reunion day between north and south korea! And also 2 years tomorrow my father passed away and it was his birthday. And he was a vet of the korean war!
OMG!! Whoda thunk!!
My respects to your late father@chrissy.May he rest in peace. I'm sure he was a swell person to have a daughter like you.
Actually the reunion was today.

I posted that korean reunion the nite before but they blocked it and then put it up yesterday morning which his birthday was yesterday as well as that north and south korean reunion. And ive not seen anything on how well that went. That was always his wish tho peace between those 2 countries!
