DONKEY BLOGGERS
Adnan Hajizade and Emin Milli had already become known for their satirical blog posts on Azerbaijan when last year they went a step further. Their nickname refers to a short video they made in which a man in a donkey costume holds a news conference. Several weeks later, they were arrested - and jailed. The sentence caused a storm, and the US President Barack Obama called for them to be released. Newly freed, they told Jo Fidgen their story.

Jono has a rare genetic condition called Treachers Collins; he has no cheekbones, and his face droops as a result. His parents rejected him, saying he looked like a monster - and he's been bullied all his life.
