NCRI – During a football match between two Iranian premier league teams, Esteghlal (of Tehran) and Tractor Sazi (of Tabriz), on Friday December 9, the Iranian regime’s security agents prevented entry of a 7-year-old girl to Azadi Stadium where the match was held. The girl and her father came to Tehran from Shabestar, a city in East Azerbaijan Province, in order to watch the game closely.
State-run Khabar online (Online news) published a photo of the girl and her father and wrote: “They were present in front of Azadi Stadium in Tehran hours before the match started but the girl was not allowed to enter the Stadium.”
To date, the International Football Federation (FIFA) has repeatedly warned Iran regarding the regime’s imposing a ban on women’s entry to sport stadiums in Iran.
