Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister for Political Affairs Seyed Abbas Araqchi explained about “arrest” of UK ambassador in Tehran
He wasn’t detained, but arrested as unknown foreigner in an illegal gathering. When police informed me a man’s arrested who claims to be UK Amb, I said IMPOSSIBLE! only after my phone conversation w him I identified, out of big surprise, that it’s him. 15 min later he was free.
