Iranian?

[edit]

This is surprising news to me. The only source which mentions her as Iranian is the UAE-based Gulf News [1] and Alarabiya uses that as their reference. I'm not sure if they mean she's Ajam, but no opposition or human rights sources mention anything about that. I highly doubt this info and think it should be removed.

I'm wary of that, too, I admit; it's odd that it hasn't shown up elsewhere, especially in the Amnesty report. I do think Wikipedia considers Gulf News a reliable source, though, so it's hard to decide what to do here. My instinct is to leave it. But if you feel strongly that this is probably an error, I think you have a good case, too. So either way is okay with me. Thanks for looking this one over!

Okay, I reviewed the sources again and I agree with you. I thought I had seen it elsewhere, but it's all echoes of that single Gulf News report. Changing now, unless we see otherwise in the near future--I have a Google Alert on her. -- Khazar (talk) 17:11, 31 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
