POPSNeda Agha Soltan ~ The Face of Iranian Resistance The name "Neda" can be heard several times on the video clip, presumably by her father. It has been reported that he can be heard saying (in Farsi) "Neda, don't be afraid. Neda, don't be afraid. Neda, stay with me. Neda stay with me!" At 19:05 June 20th Place: Karegar Ave., at the corner crossing Khosravi St. and Salehi st. A young woman who was standing aside with her father watching the protests was shot by a basij member hiding on the rooftop of a civilian house. He had clear shot at the girl and could not miss her. However, he aimed straight her heart. I am a doctor, so I rushed to try to save her. But the impact of the gunshot was so fierce that the bullet had blasted inside the victim’s chest, and she died in less than 2 minutes. The protests were going on about 1 kilometers away in the main street and some of the protesting crowd were running from tear gas used among them Please let the world know

POPSThe saddest MOMENT I have ever witnessed. To see the eyes of a young woman, and watch the life ebb from her in seconds. I cannot imagine what kind of profound emotions must have been felt by those who were there firsthand. You can see from her eyes, in an instant comprehend all that was happening to her, the fear and then nothing. i am so sorry
