Jailed charity worker in clinic after ‘black out’
0 Nazanin Zaghari-ratcliffe was briefly reunited with her daughter, Gabriella, last weekend Jailed charity worker Nazanin Zaghari-ratcliffe has been taken to the clinic of the prison where she is being held in Iran after she “blacked out”, her husband said.
Richard Ratcliffe said his wife had suffered successive panic attacks and low blood pressure, adding: “We’re clearly very, very worried.”
He said yesterday: “What I do know is that she had a panic attack yesterday in prison and she had another panic attack today, and today she also blacked out, so today she was taken down to the prison clinic and, as far as I know, that’s where she is still.
“I’ve seen reports saying she’s been taken to an external hospital but I haven’t had those confirmed.”
Mr Ratcliffe earlier said Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt had given his wife’s case greater priority than his predecessor, Boris Johnson.
He praised Mr Hunt for being “clear and critical” after his wife voluntarily returned to jail following an emotional family reunion over the weekend.
