Russian Detainee in Baku Alleges Oral Order Restricting Calls to Family

Anton Drachev, founder of Airo, detained in Azerbaijan in connection with an anti-Azerbaijani raid in Yekaterinburg, claims prison authorities denied him phone calls citing an 'oral order from above.' A relative reports similar restrictions for other detainees in the same case. This suggests possible coordinated pressure on Russian nationals in Azerbaijani custody, though the claim is unverified and based on detainee statements.
