Baku/18.04.20/Turan: Late in the evening of April 17, an employee of the Azadlig newspaper and a member of the Popular Front Party of Azerbaijan (PFPA) Tezehan Miralamli was released.
He told Turan that he was detained by people in civilian clothes when he left the house where the Popular Front Party leader Ali Karimli lives.
“There were three of them. I was taken to the Khatai District Police Department.
The detention was motivated by the fact that they wanted to call me in connection with the criminal case under investigation, but I did not answer the phone. However, I received no calls. Then they said that "not big changes" should be made in the document. Because of this “minor change” I was kept for 6 hours,” Miralamli said.
He linked his detention with arrests of PFPA activists in recent days.
The attempts to get comments in the Ministry of Internal Affairs were futile.
Earlier, the police took a non-exit subscription from Miralamli, in connection with the charges against him of hooliganism. He rejects the charge and considers it far-fetched. The pro-government "video blogger" Ata Abdullayev filed a complaint against Miralamli. —21C-

Tazahan Miralamli, employee of the Azadlig newspaper detained
Baku / 17.04.20 / Turan: An employee of the Azadlig newspaper, a member of the Popular Front Party of Azerbaijan (PFPA), Tazahan Miralamli, was detained today while leaving the house of the leader of this opposition organization Ali Kerimli, reported the deputy chairman of the Popular Front Party Seymour Hazy.
According to him, Miralamli came to Kerimli to interview him and when he left his house, he was detained by people in civilian clothes. Miralamli became the third member of the PFPA arrested on April 17.
“The detention of Miralamli once again confirms that the authorities have a special plan to block Ali Kerimli. Most of the activists arrested in recent days were people who were in contact with him. A volunteer bodyguard Niyameddin Ahmedov was tracked and detained after he left Kerimli. According to the same scenario, Ruslan Amirov was arrested. Islam Islamzade, who was arrested today, went to Kerimli to take the modem to him. Tazahan Miralamli came to Kerimli to interview. The authorities want to isolate completely Ali Karimli from the outside world - not only to deny access to the Internet, telephone communications, but also to cut off physical contacts. The authorities want to limit the actions of the party and its chair. PFPA will not back down and calls on the authorities to respect and abide by the laws,” said Hazi.
He noted that today, an activist of the Absheron district organization of the Popular Front Party of Azerbaijan, Vugar Abilly, was arrested for 20 days on charges of not subordinating the police. —06D-
