<p>We remain very concerned about reports of Aras Amiri's sentence. We are still
continuing to work closely with the British Council to understand the situation further
and to provide what support and advice we can, recognising that unfortunately, as
a mono-Iranian national, the Foreign and Commonwealth Office has no formal or practical
ability to request consular access. We regularly raise human rights with the Iranian
authorities at all levels and we continue to take action with the international community
to press Iran to improve its poor record on all human rights issues.</p>
