Azerbaijani anarchist dies suspiciously in Turkey

12:25 pm 06/05/2021

Anarchist Bajram Mammadov was detained and arrested in Azerbaijan with another activist, Giyas Ibrahimov, in 2016 for posting “Happy Slaves Day” on a monument belonging to Heydar Aliyev, the former president and also the father of the current president of the country, Ilham Aliyev.

Later, the court sentenced both activists to long terms of imprisonment, accusing them of drug dealing. Mammadov and Ibrahimov were released from prison in 2019 with an ‘amnesty’.

Mammedov migrated to Istanbul a few months ago but his friends declared his ‘disappearance’ on 4 May after they did not hear from him for two days. He was found dead and his body was lifted from water on 5 May in Istanbul.

“So far, the details of the incident are unknown, but sites close to the government are already writing that it was suicide. But the investigation has not even begun yet”, his friends informed Jam News. “He was accepted for a graduate programme in Europe and he was very passionate about it: he was not the type of person to commit suicide”, they stated.

After news spread about his death, anarchists in Istanbul held a protest in front of the Azerbaijani Embassy blaming the Azerbaijani government for his murder, Mesopotamia News Agency reported.

They chanted slogans saying: “The killer government will be accountable” and the protesters stated that they would follow the case closely.

I ‘m one of millions who have chosen not to have a Covid vaccine. Am I to be banned from planes, buildings, shops.. ?

The mainstream media and the medical orthodoxy is adamant that everyone needs to get the jab – or face exclusion from everyday freedoms and be shunned from society. Don’t they realise how fascistic this view is?

Berlin: Køpi Protest Weekend 15 May. It’s our home and we’re here to stay! Take action, large or small..

Køpi calls for friends and allies from around the world to meet in Berlin on the 15th and 16th of May for a weekend of protest. As Køpiplatz (trailer park) faces the most serious eviction threat to date, Køpi stands united to fight for our homes and families.

https://en.squat.net/wp-content/uploads/en/2021/05/20210515_protestweekend.jpg

Køpi has been a DIY project in the heart of Berlin offering living space for people in the house and trailer park for more than 30 years. It also continues to be a home for collectives, events, and creative energy since the day the first door was broken open.

We will not give up our way of life for some state backed developers! When the law wants to take our homes away, it’s time to break the law!

The alleged owner of Køpi, Startezia GmbH, is just another example of how our homes and autonomous communities are destroyed by anonymous postbox companies that care only about profit and not about people.
