British man jailed in Iran given additional two-year sentence, family says
Family of Craig Foreman says 10-year sentence was extended because he spoke to the media; Tehran executes anti-government protester accused of being a 'collaborator with the enemy'
Craig Foreman, a British man imprisoned in Iran on espionage charges, has received an additional two-year sentence for speaking to the media, according to his family. Foreman and his wife, Lindsay, were arrested in 2025 during a motorcycle trip through Iran and are serving a 10-year sentence, which Britain deems “totally unjustifiable.” Lindsay’s son, Joe Bennett, stated that Craig was denied legal representation and a translator when informed of the extended sentence. Britain’s foreign ministry is “urgently following up” on the matter. This development follows concerns from UN experts last month regarding the couple’s detention and trial, which they said lacked fair trial guarantees.
