ArmInfo-TURAN: Chairman of the Karabakh Liberation Movement (KLM) Akif
Nagi called on General Prosecutor to bring to criminal responsibility
the representatives of Azerbaijani civil society who participated in
Azerbaijan’s Week in Yerevan action.

In his appeal Nagi wrote that Azerbaijan was represented in that event
by the head of Ganja department of the Helsinki Civil Assembly Sahib
Babayev, human rights defender Khamis Masimov, publicist Seymur Bayjan,
the editor of the edition "Third sight" Rauf Rajabov, the head of
"Solidarity" NGO Afat Sariyeva and the lawyer Javanshir Omarov.

"In his speech in Armenia S.Babayev said that 80% of Azerbaijan’s
population are against the war against Armenia. We think that such
statements run counter the position of Azerbaijan’s President and
negatively affect the fighting spirit of Azerbaijan’s army. These
people violate Azerbaijan’s legislation, and I ask you to bring them
to justice in accordance with Article 274 of the Criminal Code",
Akif Nagi says.
