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.

Не хорошая новость не знаю что послужило этому но суицид плохое решение уйти из этой жизни...А почему юридическое сообщество не было шокировано тем когда другие граждане страны поджигали себя ??? среди них были и ветераны войны и простые граждане у которых были проблемы...Меня в этой стране уже ничего не удивляет и не шокирует если перечислить какие случаи были в нашей стране ужасных случаи их не мало...
