Baku / 12.11.19 / Turan: All those detained on November 12 at the Musavat protest rally near the Baku Executive Power were released in the evening. The detainees were also released on November 12 before the start of the rally. Only the fate of the deputy chairman of Musavat Razim Amiraslanli, who was detained on November 11, remains unknown.
As the head of the Musavat apparatus Gulaga Aslanli told Turan, on November 12, about 40 people were detained, including 12 before the start of the rally. Only 19 people were detained directly at the picket and brought to the Sabail district police department. In addition to them, about 10 more people were detained.
“By the evening everyone was released. Only the fate of Razim Amiraslanli, the deputy chairman of our party, who was called to the 6th branch of the Binagadi district police department as early as the morning of November 11, remains unknown. But, neither in the department, nor in the administration, they clarify the fate of Amiraslanli. Today we turned to the Ombudsman’s office. Tomorrow we will turn to the judicial authorities to check whether they made decisions on the arrest of Amiraslanli,” Aslanli said. -06В-
