Baku/19.09.19/ Turan: Muhammedali Akhundzade, the son of the convicted theologian Ruhulla Akhundzade, told about serious health of his father, who is not being provided with medical care.
Convinced in 2011 for 11, 5 years in prison, in May 2013 a theologian suffered a heart attack in prison.
"Until today, the father was not provided with normal medical care. He was not even given the drugs that we bought ourselves. His health worsened. In addition, my father has not been examined for three years, although such patients should be regularly monitored by doctors," M. Akhundzade said.
According to the Article 46.1 of the European Prison Rules, a convict in need of special treatment must be held in the medical unit of the penitentiary institution or in a special medical institution, and if there are no conditions for treatment, then he should be sent to a civil clinic, the prisoner's son writes further.
In 2016, according to M. Akhundzade, his father was transferred to the Penitentiary Treatment Center due to a critical condition.
However, the management and staff of the institution mistreated him and when he protested, he was returned to the colony.
M. Akhundzade writes that his father needs to be transferred either to a medical institution of the Ministry of Justice or to a civilian clinic. He asks the public of Azerbaijan, human rights organizations, the Red Cross to keep under control the issue of his father"s health and to promote his high-quality and effective treatment.
* Akhundzade was arrested in the so-called "Case of the Islamic Party" along with its leader Movsum Samedov and other activists accused of trying to forcibly change the constitutional order, create an armed group, illegal possession of weapons and other crimes. All persons involved in the case are recognized as political prisoners. -06B-

Baku, often called the "Caucasian Dubai," is increasingly known for systematic violations of residents' housing rights. During urban renovations and the construction of elegant new buildings, thousands of families in Azerbaijan’s capital have been unlawfully deprived of their homes. Many, recognizing the futility of resistance, settle for inadequate monetary compensation for their irreplaceable property. A minority, placing faith in the Housing Code, demand fair compensation from construction companies but often lose everything—both their homes and any form of recompense.
