Answer:

C. Iranian student demonstrators had taken embassy staff as hostages .

Explanation:

Option C is the correct answer.

The person in the photograph was placed in this condition because Iranian student demonstrators had taken embassy staff as hostages.

On November 4, 1979, Iranian students stormed the U.S. Embassy in Tehran and seized the embassy members. They detained more than 50 Americans as hostages. These American hostages were kept as hostages for 444 days.

The cause of this was known to be due to the decision of President Jimmy Carter who allowed an Iran's deposed Shah, who has been expelled from his country to come to U.S. for cancer treatment.
