Hunger Strikers Demand Prisoners’ Release amid Iran Nuclear Talks

Two men are staging a hunger strike to demand the release of prisoners being held in Iran, on the sidelines of international negotiations in Vienna to halt Tehran's nuclear ambitions. The two activists have also experienced being jailed, they told dpa in Vienna. As a young diplomat from the US, Barry Rosen was detained during the Iranian hostage crisis from 1979 to 1981, along with dozens of other embassy staff, he said on Saturday. He has been on a hunger strike since Wednesday.
