Baku / 04.06.20. / Turan:  On June 4 the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) announced a decision on the complaint of the leader of the Muslim Unity Movement Tale Bagirov (Bagirzade) and the other six applicants of Azerbaijan.

The complaint was related to a violation of the applicants' rights to liberty and security of person.

A lawyer Khalid Agaliyev explained  that  the applicants: Samand Mammadov, Tale Bagirzade, Ismail Mammadov, Eldaniz Hajiyev, Afgan Samedov, Rashad Ibrahimov and Elkhan Iskenderov complained about their unlawful arrest.

The Government of Azerbaijan agreed that the applicants' pre-trial arrest was lengthy, agreed to pay compensation to the applicants and asked the court to withdraw the complaint from the list of pending cases. The ECtHR agreed with this.

The government of Azerbaijan will pay 3000 euros to each applicant.

Bagirzade’s complaint also related to the pre-trial arrest in the previous criminal case “on illegal possession of drugs” in 2013, when he was sentenced to 2 years in prison.

In 2015, Bagirzade was arrested during a special operation in Nardaran and sentenced to 20 years in prison on charges of terrorism, an attempt to change the constitutional order, create an illegal armed group, etc.
