Iran-American academic Haleh Esfandiari, director of the
Middle East program at the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars in
Washington, was taken into custody Dec. 30 during a visit to Iran and
interrogated for months. Last week, she was arrested and sent to Tehran's Evin
prison. Carnegie's Karim Sadjadpour appeared on the Newshour with
Former Rep. Lee Hamilton, president of the Wilson Center, to talk about her
jailing and what cases such as hers say about Iran's regime.
