European court upholds media watchdog's suit
The chairperson of the Center for Journalistic Research, Sheida
Nasibova, claimed that the Ministry of Justice had refused to
register the organization that was set up in 2001 in an effort to
develop journalism and promote freedom of press in the country.
The European court ruled that the government is required to pay
1,000 euros to the plaintiff in compensation for the damage
inflicted and 2,000 euros in litigation expenses.
This is the sixth ruling issued by the European court on
Azerbaijan.
