Azerbaijani Opposition Starves in Detention Center 45th Day

Активист партии Народного фронта Азербайджана Замин Салаев 45-е сутки продолжает голодовку в Бакинском СИЗО. Он похудел на 30 кг и часто теряет сознание. 

По словам адвокатов, за Салаевым все еще не установлено медицинское наблюдение, и он не переведен в санчасть. Что касается двух визитов омбудсмана в СИЗО, то они были безрезультатны.

Напомним, что Замин Салаев требует освобождения и прекращения сфабрикованного против него уголовного дела. Его арестовали 8 февраля по  обвинению в хулиганстве и применении силы. Салаев заявлял, что обвинение против него является ложным: он ни на кого не нападал, а защищался от неизвестного прохожего с ножом.
