A court in Baku did not satisfy the request for the transfer of opposition politician and economist Gubad Ibadoglu from a pre-trial detention center to a medical institution of the Ministry of Justice. A representative of the medical department stated that the prisoner's health was normal, although he himself stated that he was not feeling well.

Let us remind you that Azerbaijani politician and economist Gubad Ibadoglu was detained in July on charges of making counterfeit money. On the day of his arrest, a search was carried out at his place of residence, during which banknotes worth 40 thousand dollars were discovered. Then he was charged with producing, storing or distributing extremist materials. The accused rejects the investigators' arguments.

The arrest of Gubad Ibadoglu caused a wide resonance in the world. Human rights activists believe that the scientist is being persecuted for political reasons. Politicians from the United States and European countries came out in support of it.
