and corruption in the isolated autonomous republic of Nakhchivan.

Jounalist who won't be silenced
Malahat Nasibova is a correspondent for Turan, an independent information bureau in Azerbaijan, and for Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty. She is the leader of the human rights organisation Democracy and NGO's Development Resource Center in Nakhchivan. Nasibova has been a critical voice against the authorities for ten years and she steadfastly refuses to give up the fight for freedom of speech. She reports on violations by the police against ordinary citizens, kidnapping of members of the opposition, and attacks on journalists. In the absence of other independent institutions, Nasibova has become a kind of ombudsperson whom the local population turn to in order to be heard.
