Baku/11/23/23/Turan: Public activist Mohamed Kekalov is accused of smuggling; he is involved in the criminal case of the leaders of the online publication "Abzas Media", a representative of the Interior Ministry told Turan.
"Mohamed Kekalov is involved in the same criminal case (criminal case against the director and editor–in-chief of "Abzas Media" - Ulvi Hasanli and Sevinj Vagifgizy) and is charged under Article 206.3.2 (smuggling by prior agreement of persons)," he said.
Recall that Kekalov was detained on the morning of November 20. His lawyer Rovshana Rahimova said that she could not get information about the place of Kekalov's detention and meet with him.
