According to G. Aslanova, her husband’s well-being is normal. After the familiarization of the accused and his lawyers with the investigative materials, the case will be sent to court.
Recall that the editor Polad Aslanov was detained on June 12 and arrested for 4 months on charges under Article 274 (treason) of the Criminal Code. The investigation is conducted by the State Security Service. On October 5, the arrest period was extended by 4 months.
The other day he was charged again under Article 134 (threat to kill or cause serious bodily harm) of the Criminal Code.
