ABC Documentary On Iran's Female Taekwondo Olympian
February 24, 2008
Dubai-based ABC News reporter Lara Setrakian is currently making a documentary about Iranian female taekwondo player Sara Khoshjamal-Fekri. Khoshjamal-Fekri, 19, made history in Iran by becoming the first Iranian female taekwondo Olympic qualifier.
She grabbed a bronze medal during the Asian Taekwondo Qualification Tournament which was held in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam in November 2007, and thus gained entry to the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games. "She is the first ever Iranian woman to find her way to the Olympic Games in this field," Setrakian told the Iranian Taekwondo Federation. Source: Mehr News |
