Washington: Washington Post reporter Jason Rezaian has been released from Evin Prison in Tehran and has left Iran, his newspaper said in a statement Sunday.
The Post also said it was "pleased to see that Iran released four other Americans," but gave no further details.
"We are relieved that this 545-day nightmare for Jason and his family is finally over," said the statement signed by Post publisher Frederick Ryan. Rezaian left Iran on a plane with his wife Yeganeh Salehi, the statement said, without saying if any of the other Americans freed were also on board.
