The complaint was considered regarding the replacement of the arrest of Azerbaijani citizen Iqbal Abilov, suspected of treason while performing duties of the Armenian special services, with house arrest.
APA reports that the appeal heard in the Sabail District Court was not upheld.
It should be noted that the above-mentioned person living abroad was detained as a result of special operational measures carried out by the State Security Service.
He was charged with Articles 274 (treason), 281.3 (open calls directed against the State at the behest of foreign organisations and their representatives) and 283.1 (actions aimed at inciting hatred and national enmity) of the Criminal Code.
The court placed Ilgar Abilov on preventive detention for 4 months.
