The Binagadi district court completed the trial in the case of youth activist Orkhan Eyubzade. He was arrested on May 6 to 20 days for taking part in a protest against the verdict to the activists of NIDA Movement. However, at the expiration of the term of arrest, a lawsuit was filed against him under the Article 315.1 (use of violence against a government representative.)

The next meeting is scheduled for October 15, where the lawyer and the accused will be given the final floor.—06B-
