European Commission's Vice-President Neelie Kroes replicated in the world press her adventures in Baku. She told that her computer was hacked and that Aliyev did not fulfill the promise given to her to visit political prisoners.

The famous writer Rustam Ibragimbekov, a member of the "union of billionaires," does not understand the concerns of official Baku in connection with the creation of the organisation. He believes that the authorities are worried for nothing, because union members are closely connected with the government.

The accounts of the newspaper Azadlig are still under arrest. It is expected that on 14 November Yasamal Court will consider the issue.

The newspaper touches upon the disaster zone in Zagatala, as cold came, and homes have never been built for the people.

The toughest penalties for participating in unsanctioned rallies are introduced in Azerbaijan, the newspaper says.
