    Azeri pressure group pickets Turkish embassy over Armenia accord



    Several dozen activists of an Azerbaijani pressure group attempted to
    stage a picket outside the Turkish embassy in Baku on 13 October in
    protest at the Turkish-Armenian accord but were dispersed by police,
    ANS television reported.

    ANS showed members of the Karabakh Liberation Organisation (KLO)
    marching towards the Turkish embassy and chanting "Shame on the
    Turkish authorities!" and "Karabakh or death!". They also held banners
    reading "Turkey, do not sell Karabakh to Armenians!" and "Betrayal".

    The chairman of the KLO, Akif Nagi, and several other members of the
    group were detained by police, as the picket had not been authorised
    by the Baku Mayor's Office, the report said.
