    Today, one more Karabakh war veteran made an attempt of
    self-immolation in Azerbaijan, as it is reported by the Azerbaijani
    news portal Haqqin.az. According to the information, disabled of first
    group, Malik Mejidov made an attempt of self-immolation by dousing
    himself with gasoline in front of the building of the executive power
    of Sumgait.

    The chairman of the Sumgait branch of public association "Karabakh
    invalids" Elshan Mustafaev told the portal that the passers-by didn't
    let him do that.

    "He doused himself with gasoline which poisoned his body. Currently he
    is placed to hospital of Sumgait and his condition is assessed as
    normal," Elshan Mustafaev said.

    He as well noted that the disabled wanted to burn himself because of
    his problems with housing.

    Note that this is already the 7th case of demonstrative
    self-immolation in Azerbaijan over a month, four of whom were Karabakh
    war veterans.
    On December 25 of 2013, Karabakh war 2nd group disabled Zaur Hasanov
    committed a self-immolation in Baku as an act of protest against the
    violation of his civil rights by Settar Mehbaliev the chairman of
    Azerbaijan confederation of trade unions. The disabled argued that the
    official seized his territory, where he ran a small café.

    On January 27 a resident of Yevlakh district of Baku, Karabakh war
    disabled Nizami Kerimov committed an act of self-immolation in front
    of the building of the district department of Social Protection Fund.
    He did that because of the corrupt officials.

    On January 29 a resident of Alpoud village of Barda region of
    Azerbaijan, Maarif Veliyev, Karabakh war 2nd group disabled, committed
    a self-immolation in front of the Barda town's office of the
    executive. Veliyev for many times had come to the office of the
    executive of Barda region and asked them to give him a land at least
    of 3-5 acres but everything was in vain.
