A woman held in prison in Iran for the past six months for writing anti-government slogans died Thursday after falling into a coma, rights groups said, accusing authorities of neglect. Somayeh Rashidi, 42, died in hospital, state television said, adding her death was caused by medical problems that existed before her arrest in April.
