Azeri pressure group pickets British embassy over BBC reports on Karabakh

ANS TV, Baku
18 May 04

The Karabakh Liberation Organization (KLO) has staged a picket outside
the British embassy in Azerbaijan to protest at the activities of
BBC employees, Azerbaijani TV station ANS reported on 18 May.

The pickets were protesting at the visit by a BBC journalist, without
the consent of the Azerbaijani authorities, to the self-declared
Nagornyy Karabakh Republic, which remains de jure Azerbaijani
territory. ANS reported that they were also protesting at the “abuse
of power” by another BBC employee and “promotion of the so-called
Armenian genocide”.

The deputy head of the KLO, Barat Imani, was received by the British
consul, ANS reported. He passed to her a letter for the British
ambassador.
