'My parents fear for lives in Iran prison'

Son of captive Brits terrified

- BY RICHARD ASHMORE

THE son of a British couple arrested for spying in Iran says his parents fear for their lives amid national unrest.

Craig and Lindsay Foreman were snatched by hardline Iranian authorities on January 3 last year as they travelled across Iran on an around-the-world motorbike trip, to the horror of their son Joe Bennett, 31.

While they are held in the notorious Evin Prison in Iranian capital Tehran, furious protests have broken out outside against the country's Islamist government and its supreme leader, Ali Khamenei.
