Evidence of Misuse of Agricultural Land Revealed in Baku

The State Committee for Property Affairs (SCPA) made checking raids in the villages Ramana and Mashtaga of the Sabunchu district of Baku and revealed attempts of misuse of 25 hectares of land for agricultural purposes.

The raids were organized with the participation of representatives of local executive authorities and municipalities, as well as employees of the department district police, whose duty is to monitor the implementation of the land and building legislation.

According to SCPA, construction of individual housing, etc. was carried out on agricultural lands in Ramana. In the village Mashtaga an attempt of fencing and construction of facilities on the lands rented to citizens for crop production was prevented.

Since 2016 the legislation has been amended to provide stiffer penalties for its violation, up to criminal. However SCPA reports only minor administrative penalties, although in many cases it is a question of hectares of land.    -----08D
