Two entrepreneurs Mahammad Gurbanov and Nadir Mammadov were beaten and then arrested in the Sadarak Customs Office on December 8. Their families are concerned, because there is not any information about them and their whereabouts for four days.
According to relatives, after beating Nadir Mammadov went home, but later the police came to his house, and forcibly took him away. His wife, Farida Mammadova was told that her husband and the second businessman were not in the police office. However, their cars were in the yard of the police office.
Farida Mammadova believes that both entrepreneurs had been tortured, and therefore, they are not shown to the families. Despite an appeal to the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Nakhchivan, there was no answer.
Prevously the businessman Mahammad Gurbanov told reporters that the customs officers took away his goods imported form Turkey, and demanded a bribe. On December 8 journalists together with the entrepreneur came to the Customs Office, but were attacked by forty persons in civilian clothes.
At the same time, the entrepreneur Nadir Mammadov and his employee Togrul Abbasov were severely beaten, as well as journalists, who were pulled out of the car, and their camera and mobile phones were taken away.
In connection with this fact, the Nakhchivan Customs Office issued a statement, and called the information of entrepreneurs false and unfounded. Customs claims that the detainee Mahammad Gurbanov repeatedly violated customs regulations, and on December 8, more than three tons of food imported by him was arrested because he did not have proper documentation.
In addition, the entrepreneur Nadir Mammadov is accused of stabbing that customs employee , and a lawsuit was filed against him. -5D04-
