Endangered Scholars Worldwide vehemently condemns the arrest and imprisonment by Azerbaijani authorities of esteemed economist and New University in Exile Consortium scholar, Dr. Gubad Ibadoghlu. After 274 days in detention, Dr. Ibadoghlu is currently under indefinite house arrest as his case has been frozen. Endangered Scholars Worldwide calls on the Azerbaijani government to drop the charges against Dr. Ibadoghlu and other political prisoners in Azerbaijan, all of which are baseless.
