Mr Pether has been returned home safely to Ireland.
Robert Pether says his return home does not mean the "injustice" of imprisonment in Iraq is corrected.
He was held for over five years after he was detained alongside a colleague while they were working in the country.
The Iraqi Central Bank started the process of his detention when it disputed a contract with a firm the Australian engineer worked for.
Mr. Pether says he's looking forward to going home to Roscommon:
