Today, 31 January evening, 19 year old Nazanin was released from prison after facing execution for the past year and a half.
She stepped out of prison with a smile on her face to greet her family and supporters who had gathered outside Evin prison.
Whilst there, she spoke to Mina Ahadi, the coordinator for the International Committee against Execution, and thanked all those who had worked for her release.

This is great news. Thank you.ship-yards. Hundreds of workers have stopped working and are protesting against the discriminatory laws of labor in that part of the country. 1Another labor strike is underway in northern city of Neka in Iran where hundreds of workers are protesting the sale of the factory in which they work and that the sale of their work place will result in massive unemployment. http://www.bbc.co.uk/persian/business/story/2007/01/070130_mv-sadra-strike.shtml
