Baku / 15.05.18 / Turan: "So far, lawyers have not been able to meet either with my brother Saleh Rustamov or my nephew Vidadi Rustamov," Saleh"s brother Taleh Rustamov told Turan.
According to the latter, both of his relatives are kept in pre-trial detention facility # 1 and the law enforcers do not allow any meetings with them. Investigators leading the case promise the lawyers to create conditions for the meeting, but they do not fulfill the promise.
The lawyer of Saleh Rustamov appealed, which will be considered on May 16 at 3 pm in the Baku Court of Appeal.
Recall that Saleh Rustamov in 1992-1993 was the head of the executive power of the Gadabay district. Since 1997, he has lived in Russia, is a citizen of this country and has his own small business there.
In May of this year, Saleh Rustamov came to Gadabay to attend the funeral of a relative. On May 8, he wanted to return to Baku to go to Russia, but was detained near Shamkir. He was taken to Baku, where the Narimanov court of the capital opened a criminal case under Article 234.4.3 (the sale of drugs on a large scale).
Saleh Rustamov's nephew Vidadi Rustamov was also detained. He was sanctioned by a four-month arrest on a similar charge. -05B-

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."
