A journalist Shirin Abbasov collaborating with Meydan TV is detained in the General Directorate for Combating Organized Crime (GDCOC) of the Interior Ministry, Turan was told by a lawyer Elchin Sadygov.
According to him, previously the journalist was detained by officers of the Anti-racketeering Department. The lawyer is still not allowed to meet Abbasov. There is fear that he is forced to give testimonies, and that is why he is not allowed to meet with lawyer.–16D-

On September 16 the journalist Shirin Abbasov, who works with the Internet resource Meydan TV, disappeared.
At 15 o'clock he went to classes at university and never returned. His phone is switched off and he does not contact with his family and colleagues, the reporter's colleagues at Meydan TV told Turan.
There is an assumption that Abbasov might have been abducted, as well as another journalist, Aytaj Ahmedova.
On September 16, at 16:00 Ahmedova was detained in the street, seated in a car and driven away by employees of the Office for Combating Organized Crime MIA. After hours of intimidation and efforts to make her stop opposition work and not to abuse the power, she was released.
It is possible that Shirin Abbasov is also there. The reporter was active while covering the trials of the human rights defenders Leila and Arif Yunus and the journalist Khadija Ismayilova.
Abbasov managed to shoot rare footage and the police was tracking him, trying to punish the reporter. -02D-

Amid the bustling scenes of this year’s COP29 climate conference, a protest against whaling and deep-sea mining, organized by a group calling itself the FINS Initiative, drew significant attention from delegates and observers.
