Tehran Abdullayev, an activist of the Surakhani district branch of the Popular Front Party of Azerbaijan (PFPA), has been subjected to administrative arrest.
As the PFPA told Turan, he was detained on October 15.
However, the official bodies confirmed his detention only three days later, the party noted.
In turn, lawyer Neymat Karimli told Turan that Abdullayev was arrested for 20 days by the decision of the Surakhani District Court on October 15.
“We have not been able to meet with him yet. I believe that we will be able to meet with him on October 21. For this reason, I cannot name the exact reasons for the arrest. I believe that he was arrested for political reasons, and the formal charge could be “disobeying the police,” Karimli said.
It was not possible to get comments from the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

The court records from the trial of Teymur Kerimov, the head of the YouTube channel Kanal-11, were falsified, the declaration distributed by Kerimov's colleagues. “The court documents are distorted. They misrepresented the testimony of citizens. For instance, the victim Leila Almaszadeh stated in court that she had no complaints against me. In court, she said, “Teymur did not ask me for money and did not receive any money from me.” However, the court protocol states that she is complaining about me and demands the removal of illegally recorded videos,” writes Kerimov.
