Baku/05.05.21/Turan: The Presidium of the Bar Association withdrew the claim against Shahla Humbatova. She was reinstated as a member of the Bar Association, Humbatova told Turan.

On May 5, a meeting of the Azerbaijani Bar Association was held, she told.

“My question was also discussed at the meeting. It was decided to withdraw the claim against me. I was told that from tomorrow I can start work,” said Humbatova.
