Former soldier Daniel Khalife is accused of sending a fake document to Iran, endangering a British-Iranian detainee.

A 23-year-old former soldier, Daniel Khalife, is accused of sending a fake intelligence document to Iran, suggesting the UK would not negotiate the release of Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe, a British-Iranian mother detained in Iran and released in March 2022. Prosecutors claim this could have endangered Zaghari-Ratcliffe, whose release came after the UK settled a £400 million debt. Khalife, who denies charges under the Official Secrets Act and Terrorism Act, pleaded guilty to escaping from prison.
