NEW DELHI - A 70-year-old Swedish tourist Thursday died of suspected swine flu in the western Indian state of Rajasthan, a health official said.

"The woman tourist, Ann Marie, died at a hospital in the state's Jodhpur town where she was brought to from the town of Jaisalmer Wednesday. But her condition worsened and she was put on life- support. She died earlier in the morning," the official said, on condition of anonymity.

Over 100 people have died of swine flu in the state this year alone and this is the first case of a foreign national succumbing to the condition.
