Traveller Couple Faces 10 Years In ‘Hellhole' Iran Jail

THE identities of a British-Australian blogger and her Australian lover who are facing ten years in an Iranian jail have been revealed.

Building designer Jolie King and construction manager Mark Firkin were arrested in July after they were caught operating the drone near Tehran without a licence.

The pair were in the country while undertaking a round-the-world driving expedition they had been documenting online that started in Western Australia and was due to finish in London. The couple’s families said on Thursday that the whole situation is a “misunderstanding” and that they were unaware of the strict drone laws employed by the country. The Australian government has said it is assisting the families of three Australian detainees in Iran, which includes a second British-Australian woman who was arrested in a separate incident.
