Baku / 09.06.17 / Turan: 64-year-old Ramiz Manafov, who arranged a self-immolation on May 24 before the Bank Respublika office near Azneft Square, died in hospital early this morning.
His death occurred as a result of extensive burns to the body, head and respiratory tract, Turan IA was told in the Burn Unit of the Fifth City Hospital where the victim was.
The reason for such a desperate step was the toughening of the terms of payment of a bank loan. Manafov took the money before the devaluation of the manat and after two devaluations the amount of payments on the loan increased significantly. Unable to pay the money, Manafov poured gasoline upon himself and made an arson in protest. Employees of the bank managed to put out the fire and called the doctors.
The prosecutor's office opened a case on bringing a person to suicide, but its results have not been made public. -05B-

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.
