French academic back in Tehran court
Source: afp

AFP - An Iranian court was expected to give its verdict Saturday in the case of French academic Clotilde Reiss, arrested during anti-government protests in June, after Paris said it expects an acquittal.

(her lawyer) Mahdavi Sabet said Reiss is charged with acting against Iran's national security and refused to speculate on whether the court would acquit.

She was accused of supporting opposition protests that erupted after the controversial re-election of President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad in June.
