At the trial of the journalist Khadija Ismayilova the journalist declined the judge Ramella Allahverdiyeva today. Ismayilova motivated this by Allahverdiyeva’s biased attitude and violations of procedural norms. In particular, Ismayilova said that she was not provided copies of the documents from the criminal case.
Next Ismayilova said that the judge threatened her with a prison sentence of 15 years, when the journalist refused to answer questions from the prosecutor.
In addition, the judge ignored her request to call witnesses, whose testimonies were very important for the truth.
Ismayilova also announced that she had not been allowed to meet privately with her lawyers and the judge did not provide that. Given all this, Ismayilova proposed to transfer the case to another judge.
Ismayilova said the judge turned the court to a “concubine of the prosecutor office.” “I do not want to see this abuse of the law,” said Ismayilova.
However, the removal of the judge was not satisfied.
Ismayilova also petitioned for being provided the court records and for summoning the lawyer for Radio Azadlig, Aslan Ismayilov. These requests were not satisfied either. The trial will continue until August 18. -16D--

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.
