Rest in peace.
I heard that in Iran such road accidents happen really often and the drivers drive like WRC champions.

76-58

Proud to be Lebanese
This is sad Iran finally wins asia after 30 yrs of not even making it to the semis and this happens to the team ....more importantly i think this player is only around 22 or 23 so hes just a kid and had so much more to live for including the olympics next year .......
Big tragedy for Iranian basketball: Aidin Bahrami dies in a car crash
Aidin Nik-Khah Bahrami, one of the most prominent players of Iranian national basketball team, and his fiance died in a car accident in Chalous, north of Iran.
Saba Battery's player, 26, played his last game with the team against Pardis, a few hours before he said goodbye to his team-mates and drove away to the north last night.
Both Aidin and his brother Samad, were members of Iranian national team for a long time, and played crucial role in Iran's qualification for the 2008 Olympic Games, a dream which came true after half a century and Iran took the championship in the whole big continent of Asia.
The incident is a big loss for the whole Iranian basketball community and a big tragedy for his family, specially for the nice father who was always among the fans in stadium, whenever any of his two sons had a game.
You will be truly missed Aidin. God bless you and rest in eternal peace.
