"We complained and were looking for justice, but ran into even more trouble. They want to kill my son. I ask President Ilham Aliyev, First Lady Mehriban Aliyeva, the public to help my son," said the mother of the convicted. One of her relatives was received today by the head of the jail N1.
"The Head of jail said that Elshan continues a hunger strike, and for another 15 days he will be kept in a punishment cell. Ostensibly the reason for that was that Elshan climbed onto the roof of the barracks and threatened the announcement of their claims. But then we learned that, there was a secret trial, and it was decided to transfer Elshan to a closed prison," said Mirzaliyev. On March 2 Elshan Pashayev began a hunger strike in protest against the unjustified conviction, abuse and denial of parole.
