Chairman of the Committee Against Torture Elchin Behbudov visited imprisoned “Bizim Yol” Newspaper correspondent Mushfig Huseynov in Prison #2.
Behbudov told this to the Institute for Reporters’ Freedom and Safety. “I came to the prison at the journalist’s request,” said Behbudov. “His condition is normal. He has no complaints about the condition of his detainment or prison administrators. He has a slight cold and is receiving treatment.” According to Behbudov, during the meeting the prison chief said that his staff wanted to put the journalist in the treatment facility, but the journalist himself refused this.
