    [Presenter] Another protest was staged outside the office of the
    People's Front of Azerbaijan Party [PFAP] today. The police managed to
    stop the picket staged by members of the [ruling] New Azerbaijan Party
    [NAP] who protested against the actions of Ruslan Basirli [leader of
    the New Thought youth movement who is suspected of cooperating with
    the Armenian special services].

    [Correspondent] Before the protest started, members of the Sabayil
    district police department gathered outside the PFAP office to ensure
    security and one got the impression that there would be no incident.

    Shortly afterwards, the first groups of pickets came from the office
    of the New Azerbaijan Party. The pickets were chanting - Down with
    [PFAP leader] Ali Karimli. Despite the police cordon, they attempted
    to approach the party office, but failed.

    The police tried to push the protesters away from the party office.

    The NAP picket against collaboration in Tbilisi between Armenians and
    the leader of the New Thought youth movement, Ruslan Basirli, has
    already ended.
