Detained in Guba on January 8, local believers Vafanur Mammadov and Nizami Najafov are charged under Article 228.2.1 ( illegal possession of weapons and ammunition by a group of persons) of the Criminal Code. Yesterday the Sabail District Court chose the preventive measure of arrest for a period of 2 months. A Guba human rights activist, a cousin of Vafanur, Avtandil Mammadov told Turan.
Vafanur's brother Vafadar Mammadov, who was arrested in Guba on Jan. 9, was also delivered to the Sabail court to select a preventive measure against him.
"Vafadar Mammadov generally has nothing to do with that. He has long been working as a bricklayer in Baku. He came to Guba after his brother's arrest . He spent the night with me. In the morning , when he went to the court on Guba for the trial of his father, he was also arrested. Vafanur Mammadov is not a radical believer . All that Vafanur did was to writ a commentary on the social network Schoolmates about the detention of another local - Nizami Najafov," said Avtandil Mammadov.
According to him, Vafanur Mamedov is charged with keeping a grenade in his house, but it was planted there.
"With regard to the family there is a practice of arbitrariness and injustice. All the men in this family are arrested. I call on President Ilham Aliyev to intervene and put an end to this injustice," said the human rights activist Avtandil Mammadov . -06B-

The closure of Azerbaijan's land borders was discussed during the parliamentary session on November 25. While the government’s decision cites the coronavirus pandemic as the main reason—despite the World Health Organization declaring its end last year—Zahid Oruj, Chair of the Human Rights Committee in the Milli Majlis, pointed to other factors. He stated, "Opening the borders could result in an influx of hundreds of thousands of non-Azerbaijani refugees due to the Russia-Ukraine war. Additionally, in Iran, many are prepared to cross into Azerbaijan to safeguard their lives and assets amid military strikes. Such waves of refugees could lead to humanitarian, social, and cultural clashes that may threaten political stability."
