Graduate student confined to Iran
Journalist Roxana Saberi has been released by Iran. But she hasn’t left the country yet. We hear about the case of Esha Momeni, an Iranian-American woman like Saberi who served time in an Iranian jail and was later released. But Momeni is forbidden from leaving Iran. Anchor Lisa Mullins speaks with Momeni’s fiance, Hassan Hussein, in Los Angeles.
