APPEAL FOR AZERBAIJANI DETAINEES\' RELEASE REJECTED
By empty (1/6/2004 issue of the CACI Analyst)
The Prosecutor-General\'s Office has rejected an appeal by parliament deputies representing the opposition Azerbaijan Popular Front Party for the release on bail of dozens of opposition activists arrested following the clashes in Baku in the wake of the disputed 15 October presidential election. The deputies argued that the detainees -- including Democratic Party of Azerbaijan General Secretary Sardar Djalaloglu; People\'s Party of Azerbaijan Chairman Panakh Huseinov; and Rauf Arifoglu, editor of the opposition newspaper \"Yeni Musavat\" -- do not pose a threat to society and would not attempt to flee the country if released pending trial. The prosecutor-general\'s refusal branded the appeal slanderous and inaccurate.Visit also
