Seriously, if not for the fact that this woman already had a child, she'd be winning a Darwin award. Why the HELL would you pry open an elevator shaft door to look for your keys???

The only person I feel bad for in this story is the boy.

But why would the boy push his mother down the lift shaft, did he think it was funny? And yeah if you are going to search the shaft start at the bottom most floor because that is where the keys most likely would have fallen to.

Wonder if there is CCTV footage because there is only three people at the time of accident. The mom who died, the kid who is only three and the other woman.

Because his name is Damien. Seriously C'mon man. Kid is three.. At that age they haven't really developed much critical thinking skills nor are they aware of inherent dangers.

What I like to know is do they just take the other woman's story as fact? Or do they have some hard evidence it was indeed the boy who pushed and not murder or even maybe she just slipped and fell on her own?

For the sake of the boy they need to exhaust every other scenario.

Also shame on the other woman. To spare the child a lifetime of guilt and basically a life destroyed she could've 'lied' and said the mom slipped instead of blaming the child even if that was truly the case... But that's just me.

Yes, that's what bothers me as well. The other woman said she turned around and the mother was gone. Not: "she heard a scream and turned around". It's pretty inconceivable to me that the mother would fall silently.

The article does not mention CCTV footage of the fall occuring. A 3-year-old child can easily be coached to claim something he didn't do.

What's more, now that I think about it, the whole "search for keys" story comes from the other woman as well...

That is why I said:

Originally I don't want to imply too explicitly, but it seems others have the same thoughts as me.

has lost his job because he was told he has a feminine voice that prevents him from effectively communicating with his university students.

Qasem Exirifard has been dismissed from Tehran’s Khajeh Nasir Toosi university after its academic committee, in charge of examining staff’s qualifications, deemed his voice was effeminate and said it could lead to students ridiculing him in the classroom.

According to the reformist Shargh newspaper, 40-year-old Exirifard is a former national physics olympiad medallist who has a doctorate degree from Italy’s International School for Advanced Studies (Sissa). Shargh described him as a genius in physics with great academic achievements.

He began teaching at the institution in February 2014 but his contract, which was up for renewal last month, was not extended due to the university committee’s ruling.

I felt as if I was living in a cartoon world … I have a simple request from the authorities. I want my job back

Dr Qasem Exirifard
“I was disqualified, why? Because I have a high-pitched voice, what they [the university] call a feminine voice,” Exirifard was quoted as saying. “They said I would not be qualified to communicate scientific contents to students because they said my voice was effeminate.”

Faced with discrimination at work, Exirifard said he had even sought treatment for what doctors told him was not a medical condition. “The doctor refused to treat me, he said you have a healthy voice, your vocal cords are fine. The doctor asked me: why should I do a surgery on you?”

“Imagine a professor who is bald or is hugely obese, or maybe a professor with crossed eyes – should they too be stopped from teaching?” he asked.

In a separate interview with Iranian journalist Masih Alinejad, Exirifard said he was deeply saddened when he heard about the university’s decision. “I felt as if I was living in a cartoon world… I have a simple request from the authorities. I want my job back.”
