An Egyptian-American activist has returned to the United States after nearly two years behind bars in Egypt. Mohamed Soltan was arrested in September 2013 and had been on hunger strike for over a year in protest. He was recently sentenced to life in prison on charges of supporting the Muslim Brotherhood and transmitting false news. But he was freed over the weekend after the U.S. helped secure his release.
