On Sunday, state broadcaster IRINN reported that " follow-ups on The latest health condition of Armita Geravand indicate that her health condition as Brain Dead seems certain despite The efforts of The medical staff".
Eight Days ago, Hengaw had said The teenager remained in a coma and that her condition showed no signs of improvement.
