After the release on January 8 of Italian journalist Cecilia Sala, who was detained in Iran, Mohammad Abedini will soon return to Tehran. The Iranian engineer had been detained in Milan since December 16, following an arrest warrant and an extradition request from the United States, which accuses him of having provided American technological equipment to Iran and having contributed to a deadly attack in Jordan against American soldiers. But the Italian Minister of Justice, Carlo Nordio, very close to Giorgia Meloni, requested on Sunday January 12 the revocation of her arrest. A few hours later, Mohammad Abedini was released.
