Iran frees British captives as Easter gift

In a surprise about-face April 4, Iran freed 15 detained British sailors and marines in what Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad called an Easter gift to the British people. The release of 14 men and one woman ends a 13-day standoff between London and Tehran that was sparked when the crew was seized as it searched for smugglers off the Iraqi coast. Britain denied Iranian claims the crew had entered Iranian waters. (AP)
