Baku / 25.04.20 / Turan: A member of the Popular Front Party of Azerbaijan Shamsi Kesemenli was sentenced to 15 days of administrative arrest by the decision of the Absheron district court on April 25. This was reported to Turan in PFPA.
According to the same source, Kesemenli was detained near his home on April 24.
“Today he called home and said that he was given 15 days for his status on social networks. However, he didn’t say what article he was convicted of,” the PFPA said.
