N. Jafaroglu: There is a great need for a pardon
The monitoring group of human rights organizations presented to the highest state offices a list of political prisoners, offering clemency for them. Turan was told by the head of the Society for the Protection of Women's Rights Novella Jafaroglu.
However, the human rights activist has no information on whether a meeting of the pardon commission was held on the last days.
"We hope for a decision about a pardon on the occasion of Kurban Bayram.
This is a good opportunity for the government and society to relieve the tension," she said.
The appeal of the arrested youth activists of NIDA to Ilham Aliyev raises hopes for pardon, she believes. -05B-
