On 25 June, as a result of the consequences of the dry hunger strike, Ibragimov collapsed in the courtroom. Nevertheless, after receiving medical treatment, the appellate court conducted proceedings on his grievances and left the activist in custody.

**Ibrahimov has been arrested before. For example, in 2016 he was arrested after jointly, with the now deceased Bairam Mammadov, writing political slogans on the pedestal of the monument to Heydar Aliyev. Both young men were sentenced to 10 years of imprisonment, but were pardoned in 2019. -21В06-
