Irish citizen Yasser Eljuboori, who was detained in Iraq for a number of days last week, has arrived back in Ireland and has been reunited with his wife and three children.
Tánaiste Micheál Martin said Mr Eljuboori's wife, Laura Wickham, sent him a photo of her husband arriving back today.
Speaking on RTÉ's Today with Claire Byrne, Mr Martin said it was a joyous occasion for the family.
He said there had been some "hiccups" in securing Mr Eljuboori's passage, but he got his passport back yesterday morning.
The anti-corruption advocate, who had travelled to Iraq on his Irish passport to visit relatives there, was arrested by authorities at Baghdad Airport on Monday 26 February, as he was due to get on a flight home.
