TEHRAN (Reuters) – An Iranian-American released after 30 months in a Tehran jail said he was duped into handing money to a U.S.-based group considered a terrorist organization in Iran and that he might now sue them.
Reza Taghavi was held in May 2008 for giving $200 to Tondar, (Thunder), a group which aims to overthrow the Islamic Republic and restore the Iranian monarchy that was ousted in the 1979 revolution, according to its website.
