🇺🇸🇮🇷US to Deport Family of Iran Hostage Crisis Spokeswoman US authorities have revoked the permanent resident status of family members of Masoumeh Ebtekar, the English-speaking spokeswoman for the militants who held 52 Americans hostage in Iran for 444 days back in 1979. Ebtekar's son, Seyed Eissa Hashemi, and his family were granted residency in 2016 but are now in ICE custody pending removal. Secretary of State Marco Rubio confirmed the action, stating, "The son of 'Screaming Mary' will be deported." The move follows reports that Hashemi, a psychology lecturer, lived a life of luxury in Los Angeles. Neither he nor his mother, who never expressed remorse for her actions.
