Supreme Court upheld verdict of PPFA activists
Baku/26.04.22/Turan: The Supreme Court today, chaired by Farhad Kerimov, considered the cassation appeal of members of the Presidium of the Party of People's Front of Azerbaijan (PPFA) Mammad Ibrahim, Bakhtiyar Imanov and Ayaz Magerramov.
They were arrested and sentenced to probation due to the demonstration on July 14-15, 2020 in Baku.
The Supreme Court rejected the complaint, Ibrahim told Turan. "We didn't expect any other solution. Just to appeal to the European Court of Human Rights, we had to go through the cassation instance in Azerbaijan," Ibrahim said.
"The trial went on for five minutes and the judge announced a pre-prepared decision," he said.
The judge of the Criminal Division of the Supreme Court, Farhad Kerimov, in charge of mass media relations, confirmed the information about the rejection of the complaint of these persons. According to him, the positions of the court are stated in the decision and dissenters can apply to the ECHR.
*On July 14, 2020, in the evening, thousands of spontaneous demonstrations began in Baku demanding to start a war for the liberation of Karabakh.
