Iran slave pen: Newsweek Reporter Arrested

Subject: Iran slave pen: Newsweek Reporter Arrested Mon Jun 22, 2009 7:14 pm

Iranian authorities have arrested a Canadian journalist who works for Newsweek, reports the magazine. Maziar Bahari—who has covered Iran for a decade from his home there—was asleep when officers raided the apartment he shares with his mom, seized his laptop and videotapes, and took him away. A photojournalist who works for Life magazine also vanished yesterday, CNN reports.

"Assuring the mother that he would be their guest, the officers left with Mr. Bahari. He has not been heard from since," Newsweek reported in an article urging world governments to pressure Tehran for his release. "Mr. Bahari's coverage of Iran, for Newsweek and other outlets, has always been fair and nuanced, and has given full weight to all sides of the issues."
