Private plane crashes in Iran, killing socialite, her bachelorette party on board

A Turkish private jet flying a wealthy socialite and her bachelorette party from the United Arab Emirates to Istanbul crashed Sunday in heavy rain in a mountainous region of Iran, killing all 11 people on board, authorities said.

Citing the Turkey’s Transport Ministry, Reuters reported Mina Basaran, the 28-year-old daughter of Turkish businessman Huseyin Basaran, and seven of her friends, all flying back from a party ahead of her planned wedding next month were on board, perishing along with three crewmembers.

Iranian emergency management officials said all the passengers were young women, according to state television IRNA.

Mina Basaran, who is part of the company’s board of managers and was in line to run the business, recently posted photographs on Instagram of what appeared to be her bachelorette party in Dubai.
