From 1991 to 1996, Mammadli pursued his bachelor\u2019s degree in law at Istanbul University and later completed a master\u2019s degree in law and public administration at the Public Administration Institute for Turkey and the Middle East (TODAIE) in Ankara from 1999 to 2001. He also underwent specialised training at the Istanbul Bar Association and gained experience as a lawyer in Turkey\u2019s heavy criminal courts.<\/p>\n
Upon returning to Azerbaijan, Mammadli worked with international organisations like Internews and IREX, where he trained hundreds of lawyers, journalists, and civil servants on human rights and media freedom. He also taught media and administrative law at Baku State University and the Azerbaijan Diplomatic Academy.<\/p>\n
In 2016, Mammadli founded Toplum TV, an independent media outlet dedicated to providing balanced news coverage in Azerbaijan. His work has made him a prominent voice for press freedom and civil liberties in the country.<\/p>\n

Mammadli was detained by plainclothes officers on March 8, 2024<\/a>, just two days after police raided the offices of Toplum TV, in front of the Istanbul clinic in Baku, where he had gone for an examination due to suspected cancer. Authorities initially charged him with unauthorised construction and smuggling foreign currency, claiming to have found \u20ac60,000 in his apartment. On March 9, 2024, a court ordered him to be held in four months of pre-trial detention, which was subsequently extended<\/a> on July 3, 2024, October 3, 2024, and December 27, 2024.<\/p>\n On January 17, 2025, prosecutors amended the charges<\/a>, adding new counts of illegal entrepreneurship, large-scale money laundering, and tax evasion. Mammadli and his co-defendants have consistently rejected all charges, calling them politically motivated. His trial at the Baku Court on Grave Crimes is ongoing as of October 2025<\/a>.<\/p>\n Mammadli’s health has deteriorated severely in detention. He suffers from tumours in his throat, rectum, and prostate that require urgent surgery. Despite multiple appeals from his lawyers for his release to house arrest, the courts have repeatedly denied these requests. His family and human rights organisations have reported that he has been denied<\/a> an urgent biopsy and adequate medical care, actions they believe are jeopardising his life. In a July 2025 appeal, civil society representatives and journalists called<\/a> on President Aliyev to intervene and ensure Mammadli receives the medical treatment he urgently needs.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/free-anar.site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/TOPLUM-TV-Logo.png” title_text=”TOPLUM TV Logo” url=”https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@ToplumTV” _builder_version=”4.25.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.25.2″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”||-6px|||” custom_padding=”||0px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n All of the Campaign’s resources<\/a> are created under Creative Commons License under <\/span>CC0 conditions<\/a>, meaning these resources are public dedication tools, with no copyright, putt into the worldwide public domain.<\/span><\/p>\n Download blue background poster (PNG<\/a>) Download blue square picture (PNG<\/a>) <\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/free-anar.site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Alasgar_Mammadli_freeAnar_overview.png” alt=”Alasgar Mammadli The founder of Toplum TV and a media law expert, currently imprisoned on disputed charges, while his health condition raises serious concerns.” title_text=”Alasgar_Mammadli_freeAnar_overview” _builder_version=”4.25.2″ _module_preset=”default” animation_style=”slide” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_button button_url=”https:\/\/free-anar.site\/newsletter\/” button_text=”SUBSCRIBE TO OUR NEWSLETTER TO STAY INFORMED” button_alignment=”left” _builder_version=”4.25.2″ _module_preset=”default” custom_button=”on” button_text_color=”#f3dc95″ button_bg_color=”#d32329″ button_border_width=”0px” button_border_radius=”11px” button_font=”–et_global_heading_font||||||||” button_icon=”9||divi||400″ animation_style=”slide” animation_direction=”bottom” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_button][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Founder of Toplum TV and a media law expert, currently imprisoned on disputed charges, while his health condition raises serious concerns.About Alasgar Mammadli Alasgar Mammadli is an Azerbaijani media expert and lawyer.
