Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich was held in a Russian prison for 16 months, after becoming the first US journalist to be charged with espionage in Russia since the Cold War. Prosecutors accused him of working for the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) - which Gershkovich, the WSJ and the US vociferously denied. The BBC's Anna Foster spoke to him about his experience for Radio 4's Today programme.
