13 October 2008 [09:25] - TODAY.AZ
Presidential candidate Hafiz Hajiyev has put off the meeting planned for October 12, said Tarana Ramazanova, assistant chairman of the Muasir Musavat party for ideology issues.
She said despite the mayor's office sanctioned the meeting to be held near the Tebriz cinema, the party decided to put off the action during the session of the Political council, conducted Saturday.

"The reason was that after the TV debates, during which Hafiz Hajiyev criticized separate corrupted officials, he was subjected to pressure. Unknown people called him and threatened. As he considered that his life is endangered, the party decided to put off the meeting", said she.
