AZERBAIJANI OPPOSITION PARTY DEMANDS EXILED CHAIRMAN\'S RETURN
By empty (4/5/2003 issue of the CACI Analyst)
Thousands of people attended a rally in Baku on 5 April convened by the opposition Democratic Party of Azerbaijan (DPA). Participants demanded that the party\'s chairman, former parliament speaker Rasul Guliev, be allowed to return from Azerbaijan from the United States, where he has lived since the fall of 1996 when he left the country following a major disagreement with President Heidar Aliev. Demonstrators also demanded that the Azerbaijani authorities stop harassing Guliev\'s relatives, and that Aliev resign because, they claimed, he is no longer able to discharge his duties.Visit also
