 | Mosque destroyed as illegal structure |
The incompletely built “Mirtagi Agha” mosque in the Ahmadli district of Baku was destroyed as an illegally built structure, Mayor of Baku hajibala Abutalibov told journalists in his first news conference in the capacity of mayor Thursday.
He handed out copies of documents certifying that construction of the mosque was carried out contrary to prohibitions of city and architectural authorities and was illegal from the very beginning. “It is time to put an end to illegal structures in the capital”, he said and added that it does not at all mean that he is opposed to religion. “I am simply against those who are trying to make a fortune by this”, he said.*
