Baku/14.02.22/Turan: On Monday, the NGO "Protection Line" presented a report on the human rights situation in Azerbaijan in January 2022. According to Executive Director Rufat Safarov, cases of pressure on critics of the authorities, physical violence and torture of detainees continued during the reporting period.
“The situation with human rights and freedoms in Azerbaijan is becoming more and more depressing. The authorities ignore not only political, economic, social, but even cultural freedoms,” Safarov said.
At the briefing, attention was also drawn to today's speech in the Court of Appeal by Ali Aliyev, Chairman of the Citizen and Development Party. He reported that he had received death threats while in custody.
Human rights activists also raised a number of other issues: the arrests of former ambassador Eldar Hasanov and political activist Fuad Ismayilov, activists deported from abroad and the Teter case. -06B-

In 2017, the Sumgayit City Court ruled to evict the Aliyev family—refugees from Gubadli (Akper, Sarvinaz, Ramil, and two other family members)—from an illegally occupied apartment in the 12th microdistrict, Building 7A, Apartment 35. The court ordered the property be returned to its rightful owner, Samaya Aliyeva. However, the Ministry of Justice intervened, citing a presidential decree from July 1, 2004, which approved a state program for improving the living and working conditions of refugees. Under this directive, refugees without alternative housing cannot be evicted until they are provided with a replacement residence by the Executive Authority.
