The court rejected the appeal during the hearing that took place in the absence of Gular Ahmadova.
Gular Ahmadova repudiated from her mandate as MP due to the scandal footage released by former rector of Azerbaijan International University Elshad Abdullayev in September 2014. Gular Ahmadova was sentenced to pretrial detention.
Later, the Baku Court of Grave Crimes sentenced Gular Ahmadova to 3-year imprisonment.
On 5 May 2014, the Court of Appeal held a hearing following which Ahmadova's sentence was suspended and she was released conditionally.
Ahmadova appealed to Baku’s Yasamal District Court on the removal of charges against her. However, the court rejected her appeal. Then she filed an appeal against the court decision.
