The Journalist was executed in Iraq by the Saddam's regime

In September 1989, British journalist Farzad Bazoft was arrested after trying to discover the truth about a large explosion in Iraq. He was arrested along with fellow Briton Daphne Parish and accused of spying. Six months later, despite international pleas for clemency, Bazoft was executed by the Iraqi authorities on the orders of Saddam Hussein. Daphne, a nurse working in Iraq, spent several months in prison before being released and then returning to the UK.
