 Tehran, Iran, Jun. 15 – A teenage student set himself
on fire in a west Tehran
suburb, the state-run news agency ISNA reported on Wednesday.
The 19-year-old identified only by his first name Mazda drenched himself in
fuel and set himself ablaze at his home in the village of Elmpeyk
on Tuesday.
After lighting himself, the burning Mazda ran out of his home and tumbled
down the apartment block’s stairway.
Screaming neighbours immediately tried to put out
the blaze but the young student was later pronounced dead due to the severity
of his burns.
