Ilgar Mammadov (Azerbaijani: İlqar Məmmədov; born 14 June 1970) is an opposition politician in Azerbaijan, and one of the leaders of the Republican Alternative Party. Mammadov was considered a likely candidate for the Presidential elections in October 2013, but was arrested in February 2013, prior to the race, in a move that was widely seen as politically motivated.
In March 2014, Mammadov was sentenced to 7 years in jail. He was released from prison on 13 August 2018. On 23 April 2020, the Supreme Court of Azerbaijan has acquitted Ilgar Mammadov and 300,000 manat compensation will be paid.
