At least 35 Iranian journalists have been arrested since protests against the result of recent elections began.
Some foreign journalists were also detained. Iason Athanasiadis, a Greek-British reporter, was held for three weeks in Tehran's Evin prison.
He's now back home in Athens, where Al Jazeera's Barnaby Phillips asked him to describe what happened after his arrest.
