After a final hearing last week, we’re expecting a verdict in Jason’s case at any moment. We’re hopeful that Iran will finally do the right thing and end his unjustified detention. As we await this decision, we were reassured to see that several United Nations human rights experts recently joined the calls for Iran to release Jason.
The experts told the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights that my brother’s basic rights had been denied by Iran throughout this process.

It’s more clear now than ever: if Iran wants to fully join the international community, they must respect basic human rights. Iran must free my brother. Please continue the calls to #FreeJason and share our petition (www.change.org/freejason) right now -- tweet, post, do whatever you can to keep attention on Jason’s case.
Thank you so much for your continued support and thoughts -- we’ll be sure to update you as the situation develops.
