Tajbakhsh's release from prison has been extended

The News desk is reporting that Iran-American scholar Kian Tajbakhsh will be allowed to remain out of prison for longer than expected. The Columbia professor was released to family and friends for a 15-day period on a $800,000 bail to celebrate the Iranian New Year, and was scheduled to return to the infamous Evin Prison on April 4. Tajbakhsh, however, is still not allowed to leave Iran.
