There was something like 100 people, who set themselves ablaze last year in Afghanistan alone.
Much more in Pakistan and India.
Iran is center of deliberate self-inflicted burnings of the world with hundreds cases every year.
This is popular custom in Middle East and South Asia. Most of victims are women. They often complain about marital conflicts. There is nothing unusual in this. I'm pretty sure that you can enter today any burn center in Iran and find woman who burned herself and is now dieing.
