Baku/01.05.23/Turan: Former co-rapporteur of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe on Azerbaijan Stefan Shennak called on the activist of the Party of Peole's Front of Azerbaijan (PPFA) Zamin Salayev, who has been on hunger strike in Baku detention center No. 1 for 84 days, to stop the action.
"A hunger strike is a risk to health and life. He needs international solidarity, and we ask our representatives to visit him in prison. I think the Baku regime will not release him because of the hunger strike. I have known this mode for many years. Salaev is risking his life, and this is bad," Stefan Shennak told the "Azadlig" newspaper.
Recall that Zamin Salayev was detained on February 7 this year, and the next day the Garadagh court of Baku arrested him for three months. A criminal case has been opened against him under Article 221.3 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (hooliganism with the use of weapons). He faces up to 5 years of imprisonment.
Salaev considers his arrest an order and started a hunger strike in protest against the court's decision. -03B-
