A minute’s silence will be held during Sunday’s closing ceremony.
Carlos Nuzman, President of Rio 2016, said: “This is very sad news for sport and for the Paralympic movement. Our hearts and prayers are with Bahman’s family, his teammates and all the people of Iran.”

Apparently he got a heart attack following the crash! How did it happen? Is there any video footage of the crash?
