Sixteen-year-old Armita Geravand fell into a coma earlier this month on the Tehran metro after an incident disputed between rights groups and authorities.
Iranian teenager Armita Geravand died on Saturday a month after falling into a coma following a disputed incident on Tehran's metro, state media and activists said. "Unfortunately, she went into a coma for some time after suffering from brain damage," the Islamic Republic News Agency reported on Saturday, adding she had since died.
Last week, Iran's Tasnim news agency quoted doctors as saying that Geravand had "suffered a fall resulting in brain damage followed by continued convulsions, a decline in brain oxygen and a cerebral oedema after a sudden drop in blood pressure".
