POLICE TARGET OPPOSITION IN AZERBAIJANI EXCLAVE
By empty (5/1/2004 issue of the CACI Analyst)
Police in the Azerbaijani exclave of Nakhichevan have intensified their harassment of opposition politicians in the wake of last week\'s announcement of the creation of a Center for Democratic Development (DIM) comprising the regional organizations of several prominent opposition parties. On 28 April, two men abducted and beat up a member of the Azerbaijan Popular Front Party, and the following day a Nakhichevan police official visited the DIM headquarters in Nakhichevan and warned activists to abandon their activities and stop publicizing negative political developments in the region.
