British couple Craig and Lindsay Foreman have been detained in Iran while on a motorbike trip.

They were arrested in Kerman over security allegations, with Iranian state media labeling them “national security” suspects.

Their family expressed deep concern and is working with UK authorities for their release.

The couple had been documenting their travels and were set to enter Pakistan next, The Guardian has reported.

The UK Foreign Office is providing consular assistance and warns against travel to Iran due to the high risk of detention for British nationals.
