Christian Weber, an Austrian citizen detained in Iran for unspecified crimes in West Azerbaijan Province, has been released and handed over to Austria's ambassador, according to Mizan news agency.
The report notes that his release was granted in consideration of Islamic mercy, amid unclear circumstances surrounding his arrest that was not linked to recent protests following Mahsa Amini's death.
Authorities in Iran have not disclosed the specific charges for which Weber was imprisoned, raising questions about the legal transparency and treatment of foreign nationals in detention.
