Iran announces bail for citizen in France linked to prisoner swap
Iranian citizen Mahdieh Esfandiari, who was arrested in France in February and accused of promoting terrorism on social media, was conditionally released on Wednesday. France and Iran are discussing releasing Esfandiari in exchange for Cécile Kohler and Jacques Paris, a French couple detained by Iran in May 2022.
