He is also not allowed to see a doctor from the International Committee of the Red Cross. The detention centre does not accept books, does not give him writing materials to take notes, and does not provide him with opportunities to meet with other persons of interest besides family members.
In the office of the Ombudswoman, Turan agency was informed that "Gubad Ibadoglu's brother Galib Bayramov and lawyer Zibeyda Sadigova addressed" to the Commissioner for Human Rights. "Within the framework of the appeals proceedings, assistance was always provided and questions were raised before the relevant structures.
