News at Eleven: [Sakit] Zahidov told the chief that

he had just had his head shaved a day before at the medical treatment facility and it was not necessary to do this again. However, [Alizaman] Guliyev did not agree. He proceeded, with his colleagues, to shave Zahidov's head and also beat Zahidov, landing blows to the journalist's kidneys and stomach.

IRFS believes this is evidence of the repression against Zahidov because of the satirical poems he continues to write.
