This question was answered on 4th December 2017
The treatment of followers of the Baha'i faith in Iran is a serious concern and I discussed these concerns directly with my Iranian counterpart during my visit to Iran in August this year. The British Government calls on Iran to respect the rights and freedoms of all its citizens no matter what their religion or belief.
