Iranian female soccer fan caught trying to enter stadium dies

A female Iranian soccer fan who had been caught trying to enter the country's Azadi Stadium has died after setting herself on fire to protest her arrest.

According to MizanOnline, the judiciary news agency, the reason for Sahar’s arrest was “damaging public chastity and insulting a judiciary officer.”Sahar set herself on fire last week to protest her possible imprisonment. She died at a hospital Monday after suffering severe burns on 90% of her body. Iranian and international social media reacted to her death and the hashtag BlueGirl, the color of her favorite team, Esteghlal, has gone viral.

Last November, authorities allowed hundreds of Iranian women to attend Azadi Stadium to watch an official soccer match for the first time. The permission was granted after Gianni Infantino, head of FIFA, urged Iranian sport officials to allocate some seats for women.

Oh no

One down......

but hey you guys just love those people.

This is so freaking disgusting. Really what is the big deal? She wants to watch a soccer game.

Terrorist Republic of Iran stupid Ayatollahs regime ban almost every right for women. “Iran rejects Western criticism of its human rights record as politically motivated and based on a lack of understanding of its Islamic laws.” Uh-huh. ‘.... due to fears she might be jailed for six months.’ FEARS?! Really? Reading your article, the word ‘fear of jail time’ doesn’t relate at all with self-immolation. RIP to someone who sacrificed herself for the rights and injustice of women.
