Ali Aliyev
New lawsuit against Ali Aliyev
Baku/19.09.22/Turan: A new lawsuit has been filed against Ali Aliyev, the convicted chairman of the Citizenship and Development Party (CDP).
As Turan was informed in the PGR, this time Aliyev is charged under the Article 127.2.3 of the Criminal Code (deliberate infliction of bodily harm). In particular, he is charged with beating a cellmate, the CDP reported. Ali Aliyev denies the accusation, calling it fabricated and politically motivated.
This is the fourth lawsuit against Aliyev. The party believes that in this way the authorities want to isolate him for a long time because of the harsh criticism of the authorities. The Ministry of Internal Affairs told Turan that information on this matter would be provided later.
*Ali Aliyev was sentenced on January 13 of this year to 5 months in prison on charges of libel (Article 147.1 of the Criminal Code) based on a complaint from an officer of the State Border Service (SBS) Emil Jafarov.
On April 15, the court extended the sentence by another month, satisfying the complaint against Aliyev by another officer of the State Border Service, Ramin Adilov.
The reason for the lawsuits was the statement by Ali Aliyev in the press that the said officers could not survive after the crash of the MI-17 State Border Service helicopter on November 30, 2021, and that the helicopter could have been shot down by the Russian side. In the crash of the State Border Service helicopter in November last year, 14 officers of this department were killed, and two survived. They also filed lawsuits.
Ali Aliyev rejected both verdicts, calling his arrest "a political order from the country's leadership."
On June 23, the Yasamal court extended Aliyev's sentence to 1 year in prison, satisfying the complaint of Ramiz Geyushev, a former functionary of the ruling New Azerbaijan Party. The latter sued Ali Aliyev after he, in a video interview with "Boomerang TV" in September 2021, called him a “hare”, “fraer” and “masturbator”.
The reason for this was the footage that appeared on the Internet in September 2021, in which Geyushev is watching a porn video. The journalist who distributed these footage was arrested, and Geyushev was expelled from the party.
