Germany warns dual nationals off Iran travel after arrest
Germany warns citizens who also hold Iranian nationality against traveling to Iran after a dual national was arrested in October.
The foreign ministry has not named the detained citizen, but she has been identified as Nahid Taghavi by her daughter Mariam Claren.
“There have been several arrests of German-Iranian dual nationals in the past — including most recently in October 2020, often without comprehensible reasons,” says the German foreign ministry in an online update of its travel warning.
“Further detentions of people who also possess Iranian citizenship cannot be ruled out,” it adds, stressing therefore that “unnecessary travel by people who are also Iranian nationals is strongly discouraged.”
