Bakhtiar Hajiyev, who is in custody, suffers from severe headaches - lawyer
Baku/28.04.23/Turan: Arrested public activist Bakhtiar Hajiyev suffers from acute headaches. He reported this to the medical unit of the Pre-Trial Detention Center No.1, where he is being held, but he was not provided with medicines, a lawyer Elchin Sadygov told Turan after a meeting with Hajiyev in the pre-trial detention center. He also said that on April 25, an appeal was filed against the decision of the Khatai District Court to extend the term of Hajiyev's arrest, but the date of consideration of the complaint has not yet been set.
It should be noted that on April 20, the Khatai District Court of Baku decided to extend Hajiyev's sentence for another two months (until June 28) on the basis of the investigator's petition.
*Bakhtiar Hajiyev was arrested on December 9 last year on charges of hooliganism and contempt of court. On the same day, the Khatai District Court sentenced him to 1 month and 20 days in prison.
On December 15, Hajiyev went on a hunger strike demanding his release. He stopped his hunger strike on December 28 after persistent calls from members of the public and family members. But on January 9, after the Court of Appeal refused to release him from prison, he resumed his hunger strike.
On January 21, the court extended Hajiyev's detention for another month, and on February 23, it was extended for another two months - on April 28.
The repeated petitions of lawyers to change the preventive measure chosen for Hajiyev to house arrest or release him on bail before the start of the trial were not satisfied by the courts.
February 28 - on the 51st day of the hunger strike, Hajiyev stopped his hunger strike.
Representatives of the US State Department, the US Senate, the European Union, the Council of Europe and a number of international NGOs have repeatedly demanded Hajiyev's release from prison. ---03---
