E. Gambarov: German Doctor Stated Decomposition of Liver in Leyla Yunus

The German doctor Christian Witt on March 12 once again conducted a survey of the health of the human rights activist Leyla Yunus. Turan was told by her lawyer Elchin Gambarov. "During the examination, the doctor told her that the results of the blood test conducted in Germany have shown that hepatitis C is found in the blood becomes threatening. This clearly leads to the decomposition of the liver. He ordered her to use expensive drugs that are not available in Azerbaijan. The situation is quite frankly a deadlock. We are looking for a way out," said the lawyer Elchin Gambarov.

In the Prison Service they refused to comment on the matter and recommended to contact the Main Medical Department of the Ministry of Justice. However, in this administration we failed to get comments.

Note that the German physician Witt twice previously participated in the survey of Yunus - in late December and January.

Yunus was arrested on July 30, 2014. She is charged with treason and economic crimes. Her husband Arif Yunus, who was arrested on August 5, 2014, is also accused of treason. Amnesty International has recognized the arrested spouses "prisoners of conscience". -06B--
