Taleh Bagirzada, the leader of the Muslim Union Movement, stopped his hunger strike twenty days later.

According to Leyla Ismayilzada, the wife of the leader of the Muslim Union Movement, the reason for Taleh Bagirzada's hunger strike stop was the health problems of those who joined his protest in prisons and the concerns of their families. She also noted that representatives of the International Committee of the Red Cross visited Taleh Bagirzada and inquired about his health.

"Chairman of the Muslim Union Movement Taleh Bagirzada stopped the protest after 16 days of hunger strike," said Rovshan Ahmadli, chairman of the Islamic Resistance Movement for the Liberation of Karabakh. Several days ago, an Iranian cleric urged Bagirzada to stop hunger strikes.

Ahmadli told that the Committee to Protect the Rights of Believers Prisoners, of which he is a member, had sent a letter to the Penitentiary Service regarding the torture of prisoners in Gobustan prison, the hunger strike of Taleh Bagirzada, a theologian detained there, and the resulting concerns. According to him, their appeal received an immediate response, and they were allowed to visit Gobustan prison. Along with Ahmadli, a committee member, Eldaniz Guliyev, chairman of the Union of Azerbaijani Intellectuals, also visited the prison. They met in prison with theologian Taleh Bagirzada, Jabbar Jabbarov, who was arrested with him for the Nardaran events and sentenced to 19 years, and Movsum Samadov, the leader of the Islamic Party of Azerbaijan. Ahmadli said that the meeting took place with each of them in a separate room for lawyers. "Discussions on the events in Gobustan prison ended with positive results. Taleh Bagirzada agreed to stop the hunger strike, taking into account the requests of us, the leadership of the National Council, thousands of supporters, the goodwill gestures of the Penitentiary Service," Ahmadli said. He added that each religious prisoner they met was optimistic and militant. Their request was to express their gratitude and greetings to the friends of the faith and struggle for freedom.

Tale Bagirzada, sentenced to 19 years in prison, went on a hunger strike on June 3. He protested against the arrest and torture of people who came to watch the trial of believers and demanded an apology from law enforcement officers who insulted God during the torture.

The Interior Ministry denied allegations that members of the Muslim Union Movement were tortured.

"A group of people unnecessarily gathered in front of the court that day, making noise and seriously obstructing the movement of vehicles and pedestrians. Police officers approached them and demanded to disperse and leave the area. Mail Karimov and Suleyman Alakbarov continued to violate law and order," the Interior Ministry's press service chief Ehsan Zahidov said.
