The released political prisoners are determined to continue fighting
“On the day of my arrest, I said that my arrest was political. I also knew that the release will be politicized,” said Arif Hajili, the head of the apparatus of the party "Musavat", one of nine political prisoners released yesterday.
He expressed regret that the authorities have not released some political prisoners. "It is bad that Shahin Hasanli, Vidadi Iskandarov, and Avaz Zeynalli are still in jail."
Another former political prisoner Sahib Karimov said that he was arrested for defending his fundamental rights. "Though I am free, our society continues to be not free, and I will continue to fight for democratic freedom, » he said.
The head of the youth branch of the party "Musavat" Tural Abbasli said that six youth activists were together with him in jail N 14.
"We were together in prison, and now we will continue our activities. First of all, we will try to obtain the release of Shahin Hasanli and Vidadi Iskandarov. I hope that the authorities will release them, too."
Abbasli noted that the struggle for democracy and freedom did not stop in the prison, and he and his colleagues will pursue full recovery. -03B-
