Detained U.S. hikers get engaged in Iranian prison, relatives say


Of the three hikers that were detained in Iran 10 months, two of them have become engaged. Shane Bauer and Sarah Shourd have decided to get married while over in prison in Iran. Shane engaged on the front lawn when the news of their mothers applying for visas was heard. Josh Fattal, the third hiker, has been choosen as the best man for the wedding. They are not sure when the wedding is going to take place because of how the hikers have not yet been formerly charged and it is also said that they will stand trial for espionage charges. The families are overjoyed and cannot wait for them to be set free so they can start planning.


I think it is great that in this time of need for the three that there can be at least a little hope for the future. They have no idea what is going to happen with their situation in the next few months but at least they are together and happy. I think it is really cute that Shane made rings out of a string from his shirt for the two of them to wear while they are stuck in Iran. I hope that they will be set free as soon as possible so that they can start their lives back over in the States and can have the wedding that they are dreaming of right now. Good luck to them. That is wonderful news to hear.
