Iran says girl who collapsed on Tehran metro is ‘brain dead’
A teenage Iranian girl who fell into a coma after an alleged altercation with morality police is now considered to be “brain dead”, state media say.
Armita Geravand, 16, collapsed after boarding a Tehran metro train on 1 October.
Activists accused morality police of assaulting her for not wearing a hijab, but authorities insisted she fainted.
There was no immediate confirmation of Armita’s condition from her parents or activists.
