On March 21, 2017 the government should respond to the questions. Fifty two applicants are the citizens of Azerbaijan, those who were forcibly evicted from their homes in the city center streets: Samed Vurgun, Shamsi Badalbeyli, Mirzaga Aliyev, Mirza Ibrahimov, Dilara Aliyeva, Rasul Rza, Shamil Azizebekova, Suleyman Rahimov, Islam Safarli, Tabriz Khalil Rza oglu in connection with the construction of park "Winter Boulevard" complex.

Among the applicants are  former deputy Hajibaba Azimov, journalist Alireza Muhtaroglu, activist of the "Musavat" Bashhanym Abbasov and others. Starting from 2011, officials of the Baku Mayor Office and the police, put pressure on the citizens, forcing them to leave the apartment for compensation in 1500 manats per 1 sq. m.
