Two Christian leaders in Azerbaijan have been fined fined 1,500 Azerbaijani Manats each, or $850, for holding an "illegal" prayer meeting, according to World Watch Monitor.
Police burst into the meeting last month in Aliabad in south Azerbaijan and arrested all 30 Christians present.
At first, nearly all of them were expecting to be fined.
But in the end, just Gamid Shabanov and Mehman Agamemedov, the two leaders, were fined.
They were also ordered not to hold any more meetings without first securing official registration.
