An Iranian female football fan who set herself on fire a week ago has died...

The authorities in Iran regularly stop women from entering stadiums...

The woman, named as Sahar Khodayari, was arrested in March when she tried to enter a football stadium.

After being jailed for three days she was released on bail and waited six months for her [postponed] court case...

She later returned to court to pick up her mobile phone and... is thought to have overheard someone saying that if she were convicted she could get six months to two years in prison.

She then set herself alight in front of the court house and later died in hospital.
