Baku / 02.05.19 / Turan: Religious activist Elnur Mehdiyev, who was detained a week ago in Istanbul, was brought on May 1 from the police department to the migration service for subsequent deportation to Azerbaijan, reported his relatives.
His lawyer appealed to the Turkish president with a request not to allow deportation.
According to relatives, Mehdiyev lived in Turkey legally.
It is assumed that Mehdiyev was wanted in connection with the events in Nardaran in November 2015, when the police conducted a special operation in this Baku suburb against activists of the Muslim Unity Movement.
In the middle of March this year, another activist of the Muslim Unity Movement (DME), Anar Jabbarov, was detained in Turkey. On March 22, he was taken to Baku to the Main Directorate for Combating Organized Crime of the IDB. He was accused of a large-scale drug trafficking. However, on April 6, the case was unexpectedly closed and Jabbarov was released from custody. -06D-
