Family feared for British couple detained in Iran after Evin prison bombing

• British couple Lindsay and Craig Foreman were detained and charged with espionage in Iran earlier this year while on a round-the-world motorcycle trip.
• The couple were initially held in a 3x3 metre cell in Kerman, southeastern Iran, for at least five months.
• Their family endured a "month of torment" in June when the couple went missing, fearing they had been transferred to Tehran's Evin prison, which was bombed by Israel on 23 June.
• Despite the family's fears, the Iranian foreign ministry said on 8 July that the Foremans were still in Kerman, though the British Foreign Office has not yet had direct contact with them.
• The family asserts the Foremans are "normal" individuals being held as political prisoners and are urging for their release, while the FCDO continues to provide consular assistance.
