Baku / 02.02.18 / Turan: The lawyer of the convicted director of the Internet TV Kanal-13, Javad Javadov, stated about the violation of the rights of his client in the pre-trial detention center.
Despite the expiration of almost two months after the sentence, he is not given open meetings with family members. Orujov can communicate with them only through a glass partition.
According to the lawyer, meetings are allowed through the glass partition during the preliminary and judicial investigation.
Aziz Orujov has already been convicted and now he has the right to meet with family members directly. Restrictions on Orujov's rights are contrary to national legislation and the European Convention on Human Rights, the lawyer said.
Aziz Orujov was arrested in May 2017 on charges of illegal entrepreneurship and abuse of official authority. He did not admit the guilt. Human rights activists recognize him as a political prisoner. On December 15, the court sentenced Aziz Orujov to six years in prison.
The OSCE Representative on Freedom of the Media, Arlem Desire, called on the Azerbaijani authorities to review the verdict on Aziz Orujov, the executive director of Kanal-13, on December 18, 2017, and to stop infringements of the freedom and security of all journalists of independent media. -06D-

The Business Continuity test of Azercell's CMG project was conducted in the Alat Free Economic Zone. A real-time Business Continuity test of the CMG – Crisis Management Group of Azercell, which is a leading mobile operator in the country, was conducted in the Alat Free Economic Zone. For implementation of the first tests Azercell was partnering with Azercosmos, Aztelekom, and Baktelecom. During the simulation, a crisis was created by completely cutting off communication in the designated area. Technical teams from the regions arrived at the scene during the crisis drill, initiating efforts to restore communication. Initially, groups installed two mobile Base Stations in the area, providing 2G service to a limited number of subscribers using facilities of the national satellite. In the next stage, high-speed internet, 3G, and 4G networks were restored, and the area was equipped with 100-megabit Wi-Fi service. It's worth noting that in comparison to previous tests, the recovery time was reduced by half in this simulation test. All mentioned recovery operations were carried out by teams from the regions and the groups of experts specially trained by Azercell.
