The 28-year-old Ojaghlou (50.09s) looked in terrific form over the course of the Championships and gave it his all once again as India’s Sandeep Singh (50.67s) tried hard to catch the Iranian before he crossed the line.
The win meant a third gold medal for Ojaghlou to add to his 100m and 200m T47 wins from earlier in the week – and he was delighted.
“I am so happy I won three gold medals. I am having the best time,” he said. “My year of hard work has paid off. I did that for my country, it was my duty. We all did our best to have the Iranian flag raised many times here.”
There were a further four gold medals for Iran Saturday at Dubai’s Police Officer’s Club stadium:
Arash Khosravi notched up his second gold of the Championships with a spectacular finish in the men’s 200m T11. The 22-year-old was pushed hard all the way but just managed to pull clear of his rivals with less than 10m to go, stopping the clock in 24.64s. “I am happy to have two golds now. I worked hard for this event and I am working very hard to get to Brazil,” he said.
