MELBOURNE, Australia (AP) — Two members of the Iranian women’s soccer team who claimed asylum in Australia in March have been granted citizenship. When The Associated Press asked Burke’s office for an explanation for why the women’s citizenship was fast-tracked, his department said it could not comment on individual cases for privacy reasons. Their citizenship could potentially have been fast-tracked under Australian law to make them eligible to play soccer for Australia. The Iranians joined Brisbane Roar, a soccer team which plays in Australia’s elite A-League Women’s domestic competition, after they were granted asylum when Iran dropped out of the Women’s Asia Cup that Australia hosted. They were among seven Iranian women who initially accepted asylum, but five changed their minds within days and returned to the team for reasons undisclosed.
