Zeynalli was arrested in September 2011 on the complaint of the deputy Gular Akhmedova. He was subsequently sentenced to nine years on charges of extortion and tax evasion. He was recognized as a political prisoner, and for his release international organizations and local human rights activists fought for several years.
In jail, he constantly accused the authorities of the political order, and in particular, head of the presidential administration Ramiz Mehdiyev for organization of his arrest.-06D-
