That #Azerbaijan could falsely arrest an activist so peaceloving as @bahruz_samad just days after the UN Special Rapporteur on Human Rights Defenders @MaryLawlorhrds expressed concern over AZ’s abuses just shows how wildly emboldened they are by now. Welcome to #COP29 where axe murderers will receive red carpet treatment while peace activists can rot in dungeons.

[Vicken Cheterian @YesVicken]

Azerbaijani state is silencing its brightest.
Scholars, journalists, lawyers.
Azerbaijan will be left with no one to tell the truth about its past and report about its present: only people repeating state lies.
Freedom to @bahruz_samad who was arrested for "possessing drugs".

The statement of civil society activists

For over a year, the autocratic regime in 🇦🇿, which has been launching total and aggressive attacks against the opposition, independent media, and civil society, has now targeted political scientist and doctoral candidate Bahruz Samadov +

[Anna Nikoghosyan @Anna_Fem]

Free @bahruz_samad now!

[Tom Rowley @te_rowley]

This is outrageous.

Azerbaijani researcher @bahruz_samad has been allegedly detained on "treason" charges in Baku according to @OCMediaorg. Bahruz is a talented scholar who has never been afraid of tackling taboos.

He must be freed immediately.
