Journalists are not allowed to open trials at the Baku Serious Crimes Court

The Baku Serious Crimes Court has stopped allowing journalists to attend trials. On July 30, journalists were again prevented from entering the hall where the trial of trade union activist Mohyaddin Orujev was taking place. Such a ban has already become systematic, because it has been observed for several weeks. The security staff of the court does not give explanations about the reasons for the ban. All this is a violation of the principle of openness of the court and violates the legitimate rights of journalists.
