Morad Tahbaz, a British-born American citizen held in Iran, was forced to return to Evin Prison, where a massive fire broke out earlier this month, his daughter confirmed to Al-Monitor on Wednesday.
The environmental activist, 66, was released on a three-month furlough in July, and had been staying at his in-laws' apartment in Tehran with his wife, Vida Tahbaz, who was previously barred from leaving the country under the terms of her travel ban.
