Baku, 18 August, Trend correspondent S. Ilhamqizi: Another attempt
to stage a protest outside the headquarters of the People's Front of
Azerbaijan Party (PFAP - reformers) was made on 18 August. A group
of residents of Ucar District [central Azerbaijan] intended to stage
an unauthorized action, but policemen thwarted it.
The Ucar residents protested against actions of the chairman of
the youth organization Yeni Fikir [New Thought], Ruslan Basirli
[accused of cooperation with Armenian special services to overthrow
the government], condemned the PFAP leadership for cooperation with
Armenians and demanded that the PFAP's political activity be stopped.
Members of the PFAP, however, again did not leave the headquarters
at the instruction of the party chairman. That is why, no incident
occurred between party members and participants in the action.
