"Musavat": There is still no information about Faraj Kerimli

"Musavat" party issued a statement expressing  concern about the fate of the blogger and the party member, Faraj Kerimli. The statement noted that he is a carrier of hepatitis C virus, and contrary to the law, his whereabouts remain unknown more than 48 hours.

Kerimli’s life is in danger, he was ill, and was unreasonably arrested. That is why the party calls for immediate and unconditional release of Faraj and  his brother Siraj.

 Faraj Kerimli , the head of the audit committee of the youth organization of the party "Musavat", and the  administrator  of the site musavat.org.az, was detained by  people in plainclothes on July 23 in Baku Health Center.  The people did not present any documents,  put a bag on Kerimli’s head, and  took him  in an unknown direction.

The same day, the Interior Ministry  published a report that police detained Kerimli,  and found drugs with him.

 Since then  members of his family, a lawyer or anyone else cannot get any information about the arrested and the charges against him.

On July 17 Siraj Kerimli, Faraj’s brother  was arrested for 3 months on charges of  drug possession.-16D04-
