| Iranian-American reporter Roxana Saberi, who was freed last week after four months in an Iranian jail, arrived in the United States.
"I am so happy to be back in the United States," Saberi told a friend while flanked by two police officers at an airport outside Washington.
Saberi, who left Iran one week ago and traveled with her mother, father, brother and a family friend to Vienna, Austria, arrived at Dulles International Airport.
The 32-year-old US-born journalist walked free from the notorious Evin prison in Tehran on May 11 after a court reduced her prison term for spying to a two-year suspendedsentence, ending a four-month ordeal.
"I wish I could personally thank all the people who supported me in my 100 days in prison," she told reporters, thanking US President Barack Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton by name.
