According to the US Commission of International Religious Freedom Youcef Nadarkhani has finally been set free.
No comment about his release has been made by Iran, and his whereabouts are not known.
The Iranian pastor had been arrested in October 2009 for refusing to renounce his Christian faith.
Nadarkhani had been born Muslim, but converted as a teenager.
Iranian officials later changed the charges, when they came under attack by the international community.
Since it all began he has become a face for religious equality and justice throughout the world.
