The Iranian women’s alpine ski team flies to Italy for the world championships in Cortina d’Ampezzo without their coach, whose husband has barred her from leaving the country, Iranian media reports.
The reports by the semi-official ISNA news agency and the pro-reform Shargh daily do not provide any details as to why Samira Zargari’s husband had not allowed her to leave. Iran’s ski federation also did not offer any information.
Under Iranian law, husbands can stop their wives from traveling outside of the country.
Zargar is not the first married athlete whose husband prevented her from leaving Iran. In 2015, soccer player Niloufar Ardalan missed the Asian Cup tournament in futsal an indoor version of soccer after her husband confiscated her passport in a domestic dispute.
