After nearly five years of incarceration, British-Iranian mother Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe could face an additional year in an Iranian prison.
According to CNN, Zaghari-Ratcliffe's lawyer says new charges, called 'propaganda against the ruling establishment,' have been filed against her.
Zaghari-Ratcliffe was detained at Tehran airport in April 2016 and jailed on espionage charges.
She is currently under house arrest in Iran.
The mother of a young daughter, Zaghari-Ratcliffe was moved from prison during the coronavirus pandemic.
The charity worker has consistently protested her innocence and is now approaching the end of the original five-year sentence.
It has become increasingly clear the past months that Nazanin is a hostage.
