The Iranian judiciary's Mizan news agency reported on September 17 that Austrian citizen Christian Weber has been released after being detained in Iran's West Azerbaijan Province, though details of his crime remain undisclosed.
The release of the Austrian citizen was made in consideration of Islamic mercy, emphasizing Iran's approach to foreign nationals and the diplomatic nuances involved in such cases.
In 2022, Austria confirmed that one of its citizens was arrested in Iran, clarifying that the charges were not related to the protests that erupted following Mahsa Amini's death.
Mizan's report highlighted that Weber was handed over to the Austrian ambassador in Tehran to facilitate his exit from Iran, showcasing the importance of diplomatic channels in resolving such detentions.
