Australian Robert Pether Held in Iraq
Australian engineer Robert Pether has been released after five years of detention in Iraq, where he was arbitrarily detained on fraud charges related to a contract dispute involving the Central Bank of Iraq. Despite being sentenced to five years and fined, a UN report stated his detention was illegal and involved abusive interrogations. He was conditionally released from prison last year but barred from leaving Iraq, and his departure confirms he is now returning to Ireland to reunite with his family.
