After reading information about the rally in social networks, he invited his companion to go towards the administration and see what was happening. When they were about to leave, screams suddenly rang out. He saw two people lying on the pavement, and another with a dagger in his hands. "When I approached, the number of people increased dramatically. In the crowd, I was looking for my friend Elish, this was also visible on the video frames. Accused of killing two policemen, Rashad Beyukkishiyev passed me by. This shot was used during the investigation as an accusation against me," Yusifov writes. On July 23, he was detained and taken to the police station, where he was beaten for a long time and forced to sign some papers. The lawyer assigned to him by the investigation also signed the papers without reading.
During the search of the phone and the search in the house, they did not find anything illegal. However, Yusifov was accused of preparing the murder, participating in mass riots, arms trafficking and violence against the police. "The video shows how I walk around the square and do not touch anyone, what kind of participation in the riots is it? I do not know anyone of the other arrested people, and if I had been a participant in the crime, I would not have brought my child to Ganja. I was detained on July 23. If I was guilty, then I would have disappeared over these 13 days," Yusifov writes.
