After earning his bachelor&#8217;s degree from Baku State University&#8217;s Faculty of International Relations in 2002, he went on to get a master&#8217;s degree from Dalarna University in Sweden and Ankara University in Turkey. He started working as an attach\u00e9 at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Azerbaijan in 2007 after passing the civil service examination.

In his resignation letter, he stated that the collapse of the electoral system, erosion of political legitimacy, and systemic suppression of freedoms created severe moral dilemmas for him as a diplomat. He specified that the recent parliamentary &#8220;elections&#8221; were the &#8220;final straw,&#8221; compelling him to request his removal from the service.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Emin \u0130brahimov istefa verdikd\u0259n sonra ictimai f\u0259aliyy\u0259tl\u0259 m\u0259\u015f\u011ful olub, sosial media hesablar\u0131ndan istifad\u0259 ed\u0259r\u0259k Az\u0259rbaycan h\u00f6kum\u0259tinin rusiyay\u00f6nl\u00fc siyas\u0259tini t\u0259nqid edib v\u0259 \u00f6lk\u0259d\u0259 insan haqlar\u0131n\u0131n pozulmas\u0131na qar\u015f\u0131 oldu\u011funu bildirib.<\/p>\n<p>Emin Ibrahimov was arrested on 19 September 2023, a day after posting on Facebook about the recent military operations in Karabakh.<\/p>\n<p>The Prosecutor General\u2019s Office of Azerbaijan prepared materials alleging that Ibrahimov had shared thoughts supporting terrorism and submitted them to the court. Ibrahimov, however, claimed the charges were fabricated and believed he was being <a href=\"https:\/\/oc-media.org\/azerbaijan-arrests-anti-war-figures\/\">punished<\/a> for his posts about Russia&#8217;s perceived interest in the Karabakh operations.<\/p>\n<p>Despite his claims, the Yasamal District Court in Baku sentenced Ibrahimov to thirty days of administrative detention. The basis for this sentence was Article 388-1.1.1 of Azerbaijan\u2019s Code of Administrative Offences, which prohibits posting certain information online.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0Not long after his release, Ibrahimov was detained again on 22 July 2024, and this time, under criminal charges.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/free-anar.site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/square_post2-13.png&#8221; alt=&#8221;Emin Ibrahimov<br \/>\nA former Azerbaijani diplomat imprisoned for protesting human rights violations and criticizing the government.<br \/>\n&#8221; title_text=&#8221;square_post2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.25.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;-6px|||||&#8221; animation_style=&#8221;slide&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.25.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.25.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; min_height=&#8221;554px&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;-22px|||||&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;3px||19px|||&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;]<\/p>\n<h4>Case description<\/h4>\n<p>The investigation alleged that Ibrahimov had injured a person named Kamal Shukurov with a knife near the Khalglar Dostlughu metro station. He was charged under Criminal Code Article 126.2.4 (intentional infliction of grievous bodily harm with hooligan motives) and Article 221.1 (hooliganism). On 24 July 2024, the Nizami district Court of\u00a0 Baku City <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rferl.org\/a\/ibrahimov-pretrial-detention-stabbing-diplomat-azerbaijan\/33049339.html\">remanded<\/a> Ibrahimov to four months pretrial detention.<\/p>\n<p>Ibrahimov added that after being detained, he was taken to the 24th Police Department of Nizami district, where he was subjected to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rferl.org\/a\/emin-ibrahimov-diplomat-azerbaijan-detainment-stabbing-charge\/33047304.html\">torture<\/a>, electric shocks, and even threatened with rape. The demand was to obtain the password to his phone.<\/p>\n<p>The former diplomat denied the charges, claiming they were <a href=\"https:\/\/www.meydan.tv\/en\/article\/former-diplomat-accuses-azerbaijani-authorities-of-fabricated-charges\/\">fabricated<\/a> and that the incident had been staged. At the court, he stated, \u201cI am a victim of the dictatorship regime\u201d. Ibrahimov explained that he had been heading to an apartment near the metro station on 22 July 2024 due to repairs in his apartment, when someone suddenly attacked him, attempting to tear his clothes. Police officers in plain clothes appeared shortly after and arrested Ibrahimov.<\/p>\n<p>Following his arrest and four-month pre-trial detention in July 2024, Ibrahimov started a hunger <a href=\"https:\/\/mikroskopmedia.com\/en\/2024\/07\/25\/a-former-diplomat-detained-on-bogus-charges-is-on-a-hunger-strike\/\">strike<\/a> to protest his detention, though he later decided to stop it for 20 days after requests from family and friends.<\/p>\n<p>In April 2025, the Baku court <a href=\"https:\/\/www.irfs.org\/news-feed\/emin-ibrahimov-sentenced-to-lengthy-prison-term\/\">convicted<\/a> Ibrahimov to seven years in prison for intentionally causing grievous bodily harm and dropped the hooliganism charge.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.25.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||-6px|||&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||0px|||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h4>Resources about Emin Ibrahimov<\/h4>\n<p>Kampaniyan\u0131n b\u00fct\u00fcn <a href=\"https:\/\/free-anar.site\/resources\/\">Campaign&#8217;s resources<\/a> <span>resurslar\u0131 CC0 \u015f\u0259rtl\u0259ri alt\u0131nda Creative Commons Lisenziyas\u0131 <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/publicdomain\/zero\/1.0\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CC0 conditions<\/a><span>, alt\u0131nda yarad\u0131lm\u0131\u015fd\u0131r, y\u0259ni bu resurslar he\u00e7 bir m\u00fc\u0259llif h\u00fcququ olmadan, d\u00fcnya miqyas\u0131nda ictimai m\u00fclkiyy\u0259t\u0259 verilmi\u015f materiallar\u0131d\u0131r.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Download blue background poster (<a href=\"https:\/\/free-anar.site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Emin_Ibrahimov_COP29_poster1.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">PNG<\/a>)<br \/>Download yellow background poster (<a href=\"https:\/\/free-anar.site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Emin_Ibrahimov_COP29_poster2.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">PNG<\/a>)<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Download blue square picture (<a href=\"https:\/\/free-anar.site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/square_post1-13.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">PNG<\/a>)<br \/>Download yellow square pictuer (<a href=\"https:\/\/free-anar.site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/square_post2-13.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">PNG<\/a>)<span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/free-anar.site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Emin_Ibrahimov_freeAnar_overview.png&#8221; alt=&#8221;Emin Ibrahimov A former Azerbaijani diplomat imprisoned for protesting human rights violations and criticizing the government.&#8221; title_text=&#8221;Emin_Ibrahimov_freeAnar_overview&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.25.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; animation_style=&#8221;slide&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_button button_url=&#8221;https:\/\/free-anar.site\/newsletter\/&#8221; button_text=&#8221;SUBSCRIBE TO OUR NEWSLETTER TO STAY INFORMED&#8221; button_alignment=&#8221;left&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.25.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_button=&#8221;on&#8221; button_text_color=&#8221;#f3dc95&#8243; button_bg_color=&#8221;#d32329&#8243; button_border_width=&#8221;0px&#8221; button_border_radius=&#8221;11px&#8221; button_font=&#8221;&#8211;et_global_heading_font||||||||&#8221; button_icon=&#8221;&#x39;||divi||400&#8243; animation_style=&#8221;slide&#8221; animation_direction=&#8221;bottom&#8221; locked=&#8221;off&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_button][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Former diplomat imprisoned for protesting human rights violations and criticizing the government.\u00a0About Emin Ibrahimov Emin Ibrahimov was born in 1981 in Sumgayit, Azerbaijan.
