Haji had avoided showering over fears of “getting sick”, the agency quoted a local official as saying.
But “for the first time, a few months ago, villagers had taken him to a bathroom to wash,” IRNA news agency reported.
A short documentary film titled “The Strange Life of Amou Haji” was made about his life in 2013, according to Iranian media outlets.
