Police Put D18 Out of Office
Baku / 08.03.20 / Turan: Police put the D18 movement out of the office, Turan was told from the organization.
Law enforcement authorities motivated this as a “threat of the corona virus.”
According to the leader of the movement, Ruslan Izzetli, their office was taken into police custody in the morning of March 8.
As Izzetli noted, a person who appeared to be an officer of the 18th precinct of the Narimanov District Police Department demanded that the premises be vacated due to the threat of the corona virus.
“In that case, I proposed to close banks and commercial facilities. I told them that we ourselves had already disinfected the office. However, they insisted that the premises be vacated,” Izzetli said. He considers "the corona virus threat" a far-fetched pretext. According to Izzetli, he has been under surveillance for 2-3 days.
In order not to go into confrontation, the organization left the office. At the same time, the police put pressure on the reporter of the Azadlig newspaper, Tazakhan Miralamli, interrupting the video broadcast that he conducted.
