Iranian state television has reported police have questioned the three Americans who were arrested on Friday after apparently crossing into Iran during a hike in Iraq’s autonomous Kurdish region. The detained Americans have been identified as Shane Bauer, Sarah Shourd and Joshua Fattal. Shane Bauer is a freelance journalist who has written for The Nation magazine and the Pacific News Service. Earlier this year, Democracy Now! aired a report co-produced by Bauer on the US military allying with Sunni militias in Iraq.
