Civil society activist of «Kura" Mirabad Rzayev was arrested on July 13 in Saatli district, and delivered in the evening of July 16 to Shuvalyan detention facility in Baku.
Rzayev, a villager of Novruzlu, and his son Mirsaleh were arrested by police in the waiting room of the Chief Executive of Saatli region, Siragaddina Jabarov, where he had a complaint about the question of delaying the restoration of its housing.
A lawsuit was filed against him under the Article 315.1 (use of force against a government official), and his son was arrested for 10 days for disorderly conduct.
Rzayev, whose house has destroyed by the floods in 2010, already for two years is seeking a just solution to his problem at various levels of enforceability, and his complaint against the executive area, and the Ministry of Emergency Situations adopted by the Administrative Economic Court N1 in Baku.
During the arrest Rzayev’s rights have been violated, he was not provided by a lawyer. Formally, at a private court, he was represented by appointed lawyer. The fact that Rzayev’s relatives can not get a decision to institute criminal proceedings in any court, or from so-called lawyer to file an appeal, testifies to the bias investigation.
