Arrested Journalist Not Given Meeting with His Family
Baku / 08.06.17 / Turan: The Gazakh region police did not allow the meeting of the arrested journalist Nijat Amiraslanov with his family, his lawyer Elchin Sadigov said.
"The family came to the police, where they were refused an appointment without explanation," said the lawyer.
Recall that Amiraslanov was arrested on May 22 for 30 days on charges of disobeying the police.
On June 3, in the Court of Appeal in Ganja the journalist was forced to write a statement on the refusal of the appeal. The journalist himself made it clear to the lawyer that he did it under torture. When asked what had become of his teeth, the young man replied that they had fallen out.
According to colleagues, in the police the journalist was beaten and knocked out his teeth, after which he was forced to abandon the appeal.
According to the lawyer, the assistant to the judge dictated the application for the refusal of the complaint by the journalist, which is a blatant violation of any kind of legality.
According to colleagues, the real reason for the arrest and mockery of Amiraslanov was his irony about Mehriban Aliyeva, which he compared with a Napoleon cake on his Facebook page.
Recently, any criticism, let alone a joke or accusation against Mehriban Aliyeva, is perceived by the authorities as a grave crime and a severe punishment follows for this. -05D-
