EARLY JANUARY 1978, IRAN, SARA:

Brief summary of the event and follow-up:

Skeptical ufologists told in a CE3 catalogue that a German newspaper for January 10, 1978, said that a 12-year-old girl named Sara claimed contacts with a being from space, 5 times in a 7-day period.

The being was six feet seven inches tall, with arms three times the length of humans, and it was covered with black fur. It said its name was "HONOR" and that he came from a place that is "ten light-years ahead of Earth."

The being allegedly gave Sara paranormal powers of unpluging wall sockets, moving furniture, and turning the radio on and off without touching any of the items.

Narratives:

[Ref. bh1:] ROBERT E. BARTHOLOMEW AND GEORGE S. HOWARD:

The authors indicate that in early January 1978, in Iran, a 12-year-old girl named Sara, claimed to have communicated with a space being five times over a seven-day period. The creature (about six feet seven inches tall) had arms three times the length of humans and was covered with black fur. It identified itself as "HONOR," who hails from a place that is ten light-years ahead of Earth. The creature apparently gave Sara strange abilities, as she is allegedly able to unplug wall sockets, move furniture, and turn the radio on and off without touching any of the items.

The authors indicate that the source is "Rhein Neckar (West Germany), January 10, 1978."

[Ref. ar1:] ALBERT ROSALES:

Albert Rosales indicates in his catalogue that in Teheran, Iran, in early January 1978 at an unknown time, 12-year old Sara claimed to have communicated with a "space being" 5 times in a 7 days period. The creature was about 6 feet 7 inches tall, had arms 3 times the length of humans and was covered with black fur. It identified itself as "HONOR" and said he was 10 light years ahead of Earth. The creature apparently gave Sara poltergeist like powers, as she is allegedly able to unplug wall sockets, move furniture and turn the radio on and off without touching any of the items.

Albert Rosales indicates that the source is "Robert E Bartholomew, UFO Lore".

Points to consider:

Bartolomew and Howard, who give this story in their catalogue of extraterrestrial contacts, are authors defending the thesis that all UFO or occupant report is a hoax or a mistake. They obviously fished the story in the German newspaper they indicate, but nothing gives it any credibility and nobody seems to have tried to learn more about it or to even provide the newspaper's article.
