Captured British sailor ‘felt like a traitor’ on Iranian TV

THE female British sailor detained by Iran for nearly two weeks said in paid interviews yesterday she “felt like a traitor” for agreeing to her captors’ demands to appear on Iranian TV and she believed they had measured her for a coffin.

The Sun newspaper also reported Faye Turney, 25, was told by her captors that her 14 male colleagues had been released while she alone was being held.

The interviews were the first results of the British Ministry of Defence’s decision to allow the former captives sell their stories.
