"Azeri police have evicted a main opposition party and a newspaper
from their offices in the capital, Baku.

About 100 officers surrounded the building, housing the Azadliq newspaper
and the Popular Front party.

Officials said the evictions were due to unpaid rent, but opposition
leaders said it was part of a campaign to silence dissent.

On Friday Azeri authorities shut down the country's biggest independent
broadcaster, ANS.

They said ANS' licence was not renewed because it had violated the
broadcasting law and disregarded official warnings and fines. "
