"I do not know the outcome of my husband's case or whether he will live or die in Evin prison . . . ."
The emotional words of Pastor Saeed's wife, Naghmeh, who directly urged the United Nations to do more to secure the freedom of her husband and others who face persecution.
"I do know that the international community must do more to ensure that Iran upholds its obligations to protect all human rights for every individual, regardless of religious creed, nationality, or ethnic background."
A powerful plea from the wife of an American pastor who is still facing life-threatening abuse at the hands of his Iranian captors.
Over the past week, Naghmeh and our team of attorneys met with world leaders to encourage their support for religious freedom – to place pressure on Iran to release Pastor Saeed, a U.S. citizen.
