Many girls were injured and taken to hospital on 13 October after security forces cracked down on the Shahed high school, where girls had refused to sing an anthem praising the Ayatollah and were protesting against the government.
Later a man claiming to be Asra's uncle appeared on pro-government TV claiming she had died from an inherited heart condition.
The UN human rights office said as many as 23 children have been killed since the beginning of the protests. 'The Islamic Republic has an obligation to protect children’s right to life under any circumstances, and to respect and protect their right to freedom of expression and peaceful protest,' it said.
