Relatives of Panah Huseyn are convicted

Trial  in the case of seven relatives of the leader of the People's Party Panah Huseyn, accused of hooliganism completed  today in the Sabirabad  regional court. The court read out the entire indictment. However, penalties were not assigned to custodial sentences.

The reason for the arrest of relatives of Huseyn became "household dispute." This case was investigated by the police a half years ago, but the specific charges have not been filed. However, after the parliamentary elections, against the relatives of Huseyn began a crackdown of the fact that they "very actively" participated in his election campaign. After the elections, someone decided to resume the lawsuit. Therefore, Huseyn believes that his family is  persecuted for political reasons.

People brought to justice are  - Adil Huseyn (brother), nephew - Vasif Huseynov, cousins Mansur, Gashgay, Ihtiyar, Khalid and  Sarhosh Huseynovs. They were all members of the team of   Panah Huseyn at the parliamentary elections on November 1, 2015, and recorded numerous violations. After that they filed lawsuits.

A week ago, the prosecutor spoke, and  called all to condemn the accused to prison terms from 2.5 to 5 years, without providing any evidence in this case.

Today the court sentenced cousins  Sarhosha Huseynov to 3 years  of imprisonment. The other  six  people were sentenced to two years of correctional labor, told  the lawyer Nemat Karimli. -05B-
