On the night of March 15, an operation was carried out to seize the activist of the movement Muslim Unity Elkhan Iskandarov. As activist of civil society Zumrud Yagmur reported in social networks, Iskanderov was taken from his place by masked people on Jalil Mammadguluzadeh Street at 2:00 a.m.
The relatives reported that they did not open the door to the unknown masked men. After that they quickly broke open the windows and burst inside. Iskandarov was put a bag on his head and taken to an unknown destination.
