Mirza Sakit's wife asks to put him to the hospital of the Ministry of Justice of Azerbaijan
Rena Zakhidova, wife of Mirza Sakit, a journalist of the "Azadlyg" newspaper, has sent a letter to the Minister of Justice of Azerbaijan with a demand to put her husband into the medical establishment of the Ministry of Justice.
In her letter addressed to Minister of Justice Fikret Mamedov and Head of the Penitentiary Service of the Ministry of Justice of Azerbaijan Nazim Alekperov, Ms Zakhidova informs that the state of health of her husband is poor, and for his full recovery he needs to take a course of treatment, the Day.Az reports with reference to the Institute of Freedom and Safety of Reporters.
It was already reported in the news item of the "Caucasian Knot" that on October 20 journalist-satirist Mirza Sakit (Zakhidov) announced a termless hunger strike. His wife told that the reason of his protest action was the return of the satirist from the prison hospital, where he was treated, back to the colony.
