Now he is charged under the Article 221.3 hooliganism; by court order he was arrested for three months.
In turn, the Popular Front Party announced the falsification of the criminal case and the political motives for the persecution of Mammadzade. He was one of the bodyguards of the PFPA leader Ali Karimli at public events, which is the reason for his persecution.
PFPA activist is accused of stabbing
Baku/19.05.20/Turan: Seyid Mammadzade, a member of the Popular Front party detained a few days ago, is accused of stabbing him. An employee of the Khatai police of Baku informed his mother about this.
The mother was not informed who and where Seyid wounded with a knife.
The activist was detained on May 16, on the street, when he was taking his child to the doctor.
