伊朗表示，释放了一名伊朗裔加拿大退休教授。此人先前因“安全指控”被拘留。
伊朗官方的伊斯兰共和国通讯社援引外交部一位发言人的话说，霍玛·胡德法是基于人道主义原因被释放的。
65岁的胡德法之前在蒙特利尔康考迪大学任教。她在参观德黑兰的伊温监狱之后，于6月6日被捕。
据她的家人介绍，她的护照被没收，并且被禁止离开伊朗。
伊朗不承认双重国籍，并且因与安全相关的问题逮捕过多名持有双重国籍的人。
Iran says it has released a retired Canadian-Iranian professor, who had been detained on "security charges."
A foreign ministry spokesman, quoted by the official IRNA news agency, said Homa Hoodfar was released on humanitarian grounds.
The 65-year old Hoodfar, who most recently taught at Concordia University in Montreal, was arrested on June 6 after a visit to Evin prison in Tehran.
Her passport had been confiscated and she was banned from leaving Iran, according to her family.
Iran does not recognize dual citizenship and has arrested multiple dual nationals over security-related issues.
