He is being held in the central police department for combating organised crime, suggesting he is of particular interest to the authorities.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  Meydan TV started up in 2013, and carries material critical of the Azerbaijani government and its policies.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  Overnight on September 19-20, three Azerbaijani journalists were detained after flying into Baku airport. Ayten Farhadova, Sevinj Vagifgizi and Izolda Agaeva were taken to the same organised crime department as Abbasov. They were released after several hours in which they were questioned about Meydan TV. All three told police that they no longer worked for the station.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  The three reporters were again summoned by police on September 22, and told off for speaking to the press after their earlier detention. According to Agaev, they had actually spoken about being well treated by police.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  The same day as Abbasov was detained, September 16, journalist Aytaj Ahmadova and an intern with Meydan TV who has not been named, were stopped by police and taken to the organised crime unit. They were released after several hours in which Ahmadova says she was threatened and told to stop doing \u201copposition work\u201d.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  Also that day, a former Meydan employee, Aysel Umudova, was summoned by the prosecution service and questioned about her past work, and in particular about recent events in the town of Mingechevir, where the death of a man in custody provoked a street protest on August 22. Police said Bahruz Hajiyev threw himself out of a window after being taken to a police station in the town. His relatives dispute that.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  Journalists filmed the demonstration as it was dispersed by lines of baton-wielding riot police. (See<br \/>\n  <i><br \/>\n    <b><br \/>\n      <a href=\"http:\/\/go.iwpr.net\/1Fg1E2M\"><br \/>\n        Street Protest After Death in Azerbaijan Police Custody<br \/>\n      <\/a><br \/>\n    <\/b><br \/>\n  <\/i><br \/>\n  \u00a0for more on the story.)\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  Nine other journalists \u2013 among them Vagifgizi and Farhadova \u2013 were questioned by prosecutors between September 1 and 8. Vagifgizi said that in the course of a three-hour interrogation, the investigator was \u201cmainly interested in Meydan TV\u2019s operation\u201d.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  \u201cHe asked how Meydan TV is run, who is in charge and where he lives. In other words, all sorts of questions about this media organisation,\u201d she said.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  According to Vagifgizi, the investigator said the main reason for questioning her was the events in Mingechevir.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  \u201cI told him I went to Mingechevir to do a report, did my job and came back,\u201d she said. \u201cHe asked whether I knew about a video [showing Hajiyev\u2019s body] taken in the morgue, and I replied that I didn\u2019t know anything about it. I went to Mingechevir the day after the video was filmed and distributed and the protests began. By the time I got there, everything had quietened down.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\">\n  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.meydan.tv\/az\/34292\/\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-34292\"\/><figcaption><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\n  Meydan staff believe officials are using the Mingechevir protests as a pretext for targeting them.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  \u201cThere were journalists from other media outlets in Mingechevir, including when everything peaked. But they haven&#8217;t been brought in for investigation. What is more, there were two Meydan TV people in Mingechevir but nine were questioned,\u201d Farhadova said. \u201cWhat they were interested in was whether I received a wage at Meydan TV. I said I worked for nothing, on a voluntary basis.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  Meydan TV\u2019s director, Emin Milli, who lives abroad, has been raising the alarm about the authorities\u2019 intentions for some time.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  In late June, he reported receiving a message from Azerbaijan\u2019s sports minister via an intermediary, threatening to \u201cpunish you for this smear campaign\u201d relating to the European Games held in Baku over the summer.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  At the end of June, Abbasov, Farhadova and two others were<br \/>\n  <b><br \/>\n    <i><br \/>\n      <a href=\"http:\/\/go.iwpr.net\/1OzOvHx\"><br \/>\n        prevented from crossing from Azerbaijan into Georgia<br \/>\n      <\/a><br \/>\n    <\/i><br \/>\n  <\/b><br \/>\n  . Officials gave no explanation for the travel bar. Emin Milli said the logical conclusion was that the authorities had begun a criminal investigation into Meydan TV.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  Responding to the latest interrogations, Milli said Meydan TV had no office and no employees at the present time, although it intended to seek registration in 2016.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  \u201cMeydan TV carries material from freelance journalists,\u201d he said. \u201cNo journalist is officially working with us. Hence, we regard the questioning of freelance journalists about Meydan TV\u2019s activities as further pressure on freedom of expression.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  Azerbaijan\u2019s prosecution service has yet to make a public announcement on the reason why Meydan TV reporters are being questioned. Its press office has said the journalists were questioned as \u201cwitnesses in a criminal case arising from a suicide at a police station in Mingechevir\u201d.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  Asked whether Meydan TV was itself the subject of a criminal investigation, prosecution service spokesman Eldar Sultanov said it was not.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  Presidential adviser Ali Hasanov, however, has made it clear that the recent detentions are about journalism, rather than other matters, and that they are meant as a warning.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  \u201cThe aim behind the law enforcement agencies\u2019 detention of staff members of certain foreign media in recent days is to instruct them of the need to base their activities on the [March 2015] Rules for Foreign Media Accreditation,\u201d he told the Azertaj news agency on September 21.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  The investigation comes after nearly two years in which numerous independent journalists, human rights defenders and opposition party members have been arrested and jailed in Azerbaijan.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  On September 10, the European Parliament passed a resolution calling for the \u201cimmediate and unconditional release from jail of all political prisoners, human rights defenders, journalists and other civil society activists\u201d including<br \/>\n  <b><br \/>\n    <i><br \/>\n      <a href=\"http:\/\/go.iwpr.net\/1Uni2uB\"><br \/>\n        Khadija Ismayil<br \/>\n      <\/a><br \/>\n    <\/i><br \/>\n  <\/b><br \/>\n  \u00a0and<br \/>\n  <b><br \/>\n    <i><br \/>\n      <a href=\"http:\/\/go.iwpr.net\/1hClMXJ\"><br \/>\n        Leyla and Arif Yunus<br \/>\n      <\/a><br \/>\n    <\/i><br \/>\n  <\/b><br \/>\n  , and \u201ca prompt investigation into the<br \/>\n  <b><br \/>\n    <i><br \/>\n      <a href=\"http:\/\/go.iwpr.net\/1JeBz52\"><br \/>\n        death of the journalist Rasim Aliyev<br \/>\n      <\/a><br \/>\n    <\/i><br \/>\n  <\/b><br \/>\n  \u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  The resolution said talks on a Strategic Partnership Agreement between the European Union and Azerbaijan should be put on hold, and asked the European Commission to consider suspending all funding apart from that for \u201chuman rights, civil society and grassroots level people-to-people cooperation\u201d.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  In response, the deputy speaker of Azerbaijan\u2019s parliament, Ziyafat Asgarov, said the criticism was unfounded.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  \u201cThey are trying to tarnish Azerbaijan\u2019s international reputation and make out that there is no freedom of expression or democracy,\u201d he told the APA news agency. \u201cThey are reproaching us for [lacking] things they don\u2019t have themselves.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  <b><br \/>\n    Nurgul Novruz is a freelance journalist from Azerbaijan.<br \/>\n  <\/b>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  <i><br \/>\n    The article was originally published by<br \/>\n    <a href=\"https:\/\/iwpr.net\/global-voices\/meydan-tv-latest-focus-azerbaijan-media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><br \/>\n      <b><br \/>\n        IWPR<br \/>\n      <\/b><br \/>\n    <\/a><br \/>\n  <\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Investigators say they&#8217;re questioning witnesses for a separate criminal investigation, but presidential advisor confirms detentions are warning to journalists.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":11,"featured_media":34286,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_sitemap_exclude":false,"_sitemap_priority":"","_sitemap_frequency":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[37],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-170120","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","infinite-scroll-item","generate-columns","tablet-grid-50","mobile-grid-100","grid-parent","grid-33","no-featured-image-padding"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.9 -
