During the nearly 14 months Sarah Shourd spent in an Iranian prison cell, she went on a hunger strike four times. It was the only way she had to protest her prolonged detention.
On Friday, she fasted again, this time in solidarity with the two fellow UC Berkeley graduates left behind in Tehran’s Evin Prison when she was freed in September on $500,000 bail: her fiance, Shane Bauer, and their friend Joshua Fattal.
