Samire Osmanova, the wife of Karabakh War martyr from Sumqayit plans
to place protest action in Martyrs’ Alley.

Though Osmanova got the voucher of three-room apartment for which
her husband stood in a queue she cannot move there, because refugee
family from Gubadli seized the apartment, Information Department of
Human Rights Resources Center office in Guba-Khachmaz regions told
APA northern bureau.

According to the President’s decree refugee families cannot be evicted
from the houses they live.

Osmanova had to seize the apartment whose owner died last summer,
but the city court evicted the martyr’s family in September this year.

Osmanova with her children lived in the houses of her relatives for
some time. She appealed to different state bodies and courts.

Sumqayit Mayor’s Office temporarily supplied the family with two-room
apartment and pays AZN100 for it every month.

The family appealed to the President and asked him to end their
torture. Osmanova said that she will put up a tent in Martyr’s Alley
in Sumqayit and live there if her rights are not restored.
