A British man jailed in Iran together with his wife has received an additional two-year prison sentence, according to statements from the couple’s family reported by multiple outlets. The family says the extension comes after the man was already serving a term in Iran and that the new sentence has been added to his existing jail time. One outlet reports the family’s claim that the additional period is linked to the man’s contact with media. Another report describes the family’s reaction, saying they consider the extended sentence unjustifiable. The reports consistently frame the information as coming from the family rather than as an official response from Iranian authorities. Other details about the original charges and the specific court process are not consistently provided across the sources. Overall, the coverage agrees that the couple remains detained in Iran and that the British man’s imprisonment has been extended by two years, with the family presenting the development and its basis as the main new information.
