Two PFPA Activists Dragged into Police
Baku / 05.01.18 / Turan: Two activists of the Popular Front Party have been summoned to the police for two days in a row: Natig Kazimov, member of the party's youth committee, is summoned to the Binagadi police department and member of the Binagadi branch of the party Rashid Farajli - to the Baku Main Police Department.
The reason for calling Kazimov is his proposal to the residents of the Gobu village where he lives to send a complaint to the gas department in connection with problems with gas supply. Farajli, however, is called due to his activity in social networks, where he publishes articles on socio-political issues.
After interrogations on January 4, activists were again summoned to the police, the Popular Front Party reported.
