Mehdi Kazemi has been granted temporary asylum by the UK, as they reconsider his plea for long-term asylum. This recent change of heart by British authorities is likely a reaction to the massive media attention the Iranian teen has received in the past few weeks. Kazemi's uncle told reporters that the teen is very grateful for international support he has received.
Kazemi should be returned to the UK soon, where he has family and friends waiting.
