Baku / 27.08.18 / Turan: Farid Yusub Ragim oglu, citizen of Azerbaijan, was detained in Yaroslavl on August 6. He was placed in the detention center for those who committed administrative offenses, the Russian edition of "Yaroslavl News" reported. Farid Yusub himself said that he did not violate anything and lives in Russia for a long time, married to a Russian, and his child is a Russian citizen. The Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees granted him the appropriate status, but since 2014 the Russian authorities have made attempts to send him home. In Azerbaijan, this person is on the wanted list.
Farid connects his misfortunes with the problems of his own sister - Gulnara Shekinskaya, who has been married to Emin Shekinsky, major general of the Azerbaijani police for more than ten years, today he is the head of the main police department in transport.
After the divorce from her husband, Gulnara left Azerbaijan, fearing that he would take away her 4 daughters and forbid them to bring up. Together with the children, she hurriedly left the city and hiding from the police, she crossed the Georgian border on foot, where she lives, having international refugee status. This happened in 2014. At the same time, a lawsuit was filed against Farid Yusub, who was accused of stealing money from a safe in Sheki's apartment.
A few days after the arrest, was granted the request for the extradition of Farid Yusub, although the defense said that after the expulsion he was threatened with torture and suffering. On August 15, the international organization Amnesty International condemned the extradition of Farid Yusub to Azerbaijan, noting the possibility of torture, ill-treatment and unfair trial.
The Azerbaijani authorities must ensure that he will not be subjected to torture or other ill-treatment and must release him if there is insufficient evidence that he has committed an offense. He should also be given access to a lawyer.
According to Farid Yusub, in 2008 he was brutally beaten by the police for helping his sister leave Azerbaijan, which was tortured by her husband.
For many years, Amnesty International has reported serious human rights violations in Azerbaijan. The rights to freedom of expression, association and peaceful assembly were strictly limited, and many of the journalists, human rights defenders and other activists were persecuted. There are more than 100 political prisoners in the country, the statement says. -02D-
