According to him, Punhan was expelled from Germany on November 24 last year. “The police grabbed my son on the street and the next day he was deported to Baku. His wife did not know about his detention. After being delivered to Baku, he was kept in quarantine for two weeks. Three men in civilian clothes came to him and interrogated him,” the man said.
