Suspects detained for stealing citizens' money online
Baku/29.08.23/Turan: Members of a group who stole citizens' money through social networks have been detained. This is stated in the report of the Azerbaijani Interior Ministry circulated on 29 August.
Members of the group deceived citizens with attractive advertisement: "Sold gold on credit" in social network "TikTok".
Previously convicted Elvin Hasanov, Logman Zayidov and Jeyhun Kerimov created fake profiles, where they lured their victims who made online payments. Then they blocked the accounts of those who paid for the "purchase".
The detainees admitted that they had caused material damage to more than 150 people.
Another operation resulted in the arrest of Kanan Badirli, who was also involved in the theft of citizens' funds from bank cards.
The investigation is ongoing. Victims of illegal actions of Hasanov, Zayidov, Kerimov and Badirli can apply to the Interior Ministry. -06В-

The closure of Azerbaijan's land borders was discussed during the parliamentary session on November 25. While the government’s decision cites the coronavirus pandemic as the main reason—despite the World Health Organization declaring its end last year—Zahid Oruj, Chair of the Human Rights Committee in the Milli Majlis, pointed to other factors. He stated, "Opening the borders could result in an influx of hundreds of thousands of non-Azerbaijani refugees due to the Russia-Ukraine war. Additionally, in Iran, many are prepared to cross into Azerbaijan to safeguard their lives and assets amid military strikes. Such waves of refugees could lead to humanitarian, social, and cultural clashes that may threaten political stability."
