Relatives of the defendants in the “Ganja case” held another protest action

On August 12, relatives of the defendants in the “Ganja case” held a picket in front of the Azerbaijani presidential administration building with the slogans: “Freedom for the Ganja prisoners!” “End to frame-up courts!”

They stated that the accused were unfairly arrested and demanded their acquittal by the court. The police suppressed the rally as saying that because of the pandemic, the administration would not accept the protesters.

The action was timed to coincide with today’s meeting on the case at the Baku Court for Serious Crimes.
