On 6 March 2024, the police raided the shared offices of Toplum TV and IDI. They arrested several individuals, including Amrahov. Based on claims that they allegedly found large amounts of foreign currency at his home, the investigative authorities charged Amrahov with smuggling foreign currency (Criminal Code Article 206.3.2).<\/p>\n
On 17 January 2025, authorities amended the indictment and brought new charges against Amrahov and his co-defendants, including illegal entrepreneurship, money laundering, tax evasion, and smuggling committed by an organised group. Like the others in the case, he denied all charges, claiming political motives behind his arrest.1<\/a><\/sup><\/p>\n On 2 April 2025, during the preliminary hearing of the case at the Baku Serious Crimes Court, the judge rejected a motion for his release into house arrest.<\/p>\n During the May 2025 court hearings, Amrahov requested the return of personal items seized during the search of his home, including electronic devices. According to his father, the family had struggled financially since his arrest because Amrahov, despite earning a low salary, was a crucial source of support for his diabetic mother and his younger brother, who was diagnosed with schizophrenia after he was beaten and injured in the army.2<\/a><\/sup><\/p>\n As of January 2026, his trial is ongoing.3<\/a><\/sup><\/p>\n <\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.25.2″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”||-6px|||” custom_padding=”||60px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n All of the Campaign’s resources<\/a> are created under Creative Commons License under CC0 conditions<\/a>, meaning these resources are public dedication tools, with no copyright, put into the worldwide public domain.<\/p>\n Download blue background poster (PNG<\/a>)<\/p>\nReferences<\/h4>\n
