    Another Karabakh war veteran commits self-immolation in Baku, the
    Azeri news agency "Vesti.az" reports.

    "Nureyev Joshgun Eyvaz oglu born in 1971, resident of the capital
    city, doused himself with gasoline in front of his relatives and set
    on fire. Relatives extinguished the fire, but they were unable to save
    Nureyev. He died from burns after 8 hours being in hospital," says the
    publication.

    The prosecutor's office stated that according to the preliminary
    investigation, Nureyev was single, did not work anywhere and by that
    time was living with his relatives, next to whose house he set himself
    to fire.

    "Nureyev was Karabakh war participant. This fact had probably had left
    an influence on his mental condition," the prosecutor's office noted.

    Since December of the last year some of the disabled of Karabakh war
    in Azerbaijan tried to reach out to the authorities of the country by
    committing self-immolation acts. 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.

    Moreover, 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.

    On February 15, 2014 Malik Mejidov another disabled of Karabakh war,
    who had doused himself with gasoline beforehand tried to set himself
    on fire in front of the building of the Executive Power of Sumgait
    city. The passers-by, however, did not allow him burn himself. The
    disabled man wanted to set himself to fire because of the problems he
    was facing in connection with his domicile.
