The head of the district refused to file a lawsuit against the journalist
Baku / 11.05.18 / Turan: Former head of the Jalilabad region, and now the head of the Executive Power of the Yasamal district of the capital, Aziz Azizov, resigned from the lawsuit against the founder and editor of azel.tv, Afgan Sadigov, filed for private criminal charges. A representative of Azizov said this at a today's court session.
In connection with the withdrawal of the claim, the Jalilabad District Court dismissed the case. The lawyer Elchin Sadigov informed Turan agency about this.
Afgan Sadygov was detained on November 22, 2016. He was accused of having struck a woman in the building of the executive branch. Human rights organizations recognized him as a political prisoner.
In November 2017, the Supreme Court reduced the sentence to A.Sadigov from 2.5 to 1.5 years imprisonment. However, in December 2017, a criminal suit on defamation filed by the former head of the Jalilabad region Aziz Azizov (now the head of the Yasamal district) was renewed against him. Today on May 4 at 4 pm in the Jalilabad District Court a meeting on the suit of Azizov was appointed. -06D--

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."
