rights and the safety of individuals are not guaranteed\u201d in Iran.<\/p>\n<p>The move came the day after Iranian state television broadcast what it said were \u201cconfessions\u201d by two French nationals, five months after they were arrested in the Islamic republic.<\/p>\n<p>French teachers\u2019 union official Cecile Kohler and her partner Jacques Paris have been detained in Iran since May 7 and stand accused of seeking to stir labor unrest during teachers\u2019 strikes earlier this year.<\/p>\n<p>Iran had announced on May 11 the arrest of two Europeans \u201cwho entered the country with the aim of triggering chaos and destabilizing society.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The release of the alleged confessions comes as Iran grapples with a new wave of women-led protests that erupted on September 16 following the death in custody of Mahsa Amini.<\/p>\n<p>The 22-year-old Iranian Kurd died after being detained for allegedly breaching the country\u2019s strict rules on how women should dress.<\/p>\n<p>Iran said Friday an investigation into Amini\u2019s death in custody found she lost her life to illness rather than reported beatings that sparked three weeks of bloody protests.<\/p>\n<p>Beside Kohler and Paris, two other French nationals are currently being held in Iran.<\/p>\n<p>One is French-Iranian researcher Fariba Adelkhah, arrested in June 2019 and later sentenced to five years in prison for undermining national security, allegations her family has strongly denied.<\/p>\n<p>Another French citizen, Benjamin Briere, was arrested in May 2020 and later sentenced to eight years and eight months in prison for espionage, charges he rejects.<\/p>\n<p>They are among more than 20 Westerners, most of them dual nationals, being held or prevented from leaving Iran.<\/p>\n<p>Rights groups accuse Tehran of practicing a kind of hostage diplomacy with the detainees, using them as a negotiating tool with the outside world, but Iran rejects such accusations.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe capacity of the French embassy in Tehran to provide consular protection to nationals arrested or detained in Iran is very limited,\u201d the French foreign ministry
