DETAINED AZERBAIJANI OPPOSITIONISTS END HUNGER STRIKE
By empty (2/19/2004 issue of the CACI Analyst)
Several dozen Azerbaijani opposition activists detained for their alleged role in the clashes in Baku on 15-16 October between police and opposition sympathizers protesting the apparent rigging of the outcome of the 15 October presidential ballot have ended the hunger strike they began earlier this month. The hunger strikers, who were protesting the delay in bringing them to trial, were persuaded by opposition party leaders Ali Kerimli (Azerbaijan Popular Front Party progressive wing) and Isa Qambar (Musavat) to abandon their fast.
