Comment on Q&A: Mother of jailed journalist Rezaian in 'disbelief'

Mother of jailed journalist Rezaian in 'disbelief' Rezaian, 38, was taken into custody along with his wife and two other unidentified individuals - one of whom has since been released, according to the Washington Post. The family also released a statement, saying, "The Rezaian and Salehi families are working together along with the Washington Post and relevant governments to ensure the timely release of their children." To my knowledge, Jason has not been able to contact anyone since his arrest. Is there anything else you'd like to tell the Iranian government that you didn't say in the video? Have you heard from the Iranian government since your video plea for Jason's release on Tuesday? (Jason Rezaian takes medication for high blood pressure.) But I am feeling the support and prayers of many around the world. For decades Iran has been vilified by much of the western press; Jason was committed to sharing an accurate view of life in modern Iran, trends, aspirations, personalities.
