Elnaz Rekabi, after competing on Sunday in Seoul without wearing a veil, welcomed on Wednesday on her return to Tehran as a heroine, would unofficially be placed under house arrest in her hometown of Zenjan.
This was reported by sources of the BBC, according to which the husband of the "rock climber" was threatened with the confiscation of all assets, without a denial of the protest gesture. The case of the Iranian climbing champion closely resembles that of the Chinese tennis player Shuai Peng; just yesterday, the president of the Iranian Coni had stated that no measures would be taken against the 33-year-old Persian, bronze in the combined specialty at the 2021 World Cup.
