Lindsay and Craig Foreman, the British couple riding around the world on motorcycles, have been handed a 10-year jail sentence in Iran after being accused of espionage – a charge their family insist is baseless. the Foremans, a Sussex couple in their 50s, were arrested in January 2025 while travelling through Iran as part of a round-the-world bike trip. This week, a judge at Branch 15 of the Tehran Revolutionary Court sentenced them to a decade behind bars. They are being held separately inside Tehran’s notorious Evin prison, a facility long criticised by human rights groups for alleged torture and inhumane conditions. The Foremans’ problems began at the start of 2025, when the couple entered Iran as part of their global motorcycle journey. Iranian authorities then detained them, charging them both with spying – an allegation they, and their family, strenuously deny. Throughout 2025, the pair were held in Evin prison in what their family describe as “dire” conditions. According to Lindsay’s son, Joe Bennett, they were surrounded by “dirt, vermin, and violence” and were losing weight.
