Baku/15.12.21/Turan: The action of solidarity with the political prisoner Saleh Rustamov, who is on 40th day of hunger strike, continues. Today 7 activists are participating in the action.
On the 3rd day of the action, no violations were recorded in their state of health. Turan was informed about this by a participant of the action, an activist of the Popular Front Party and former political prisoner Mamed Ibrahim.
According to him, many people want to join the action. “Today, on December 15, about 30 members of the Musavat Party and the Popular Front expressed such a desire. However, the apartment of Saleh Rustamov's relative, where the hunger strike is taking place, is too small for so many people. Therefore, the activists will carry out the action in another place,” Ibrahim said.-03-
