Baku, 31 August: A hearing of the cases of 10 “Karabakh guerrillas”,
which was adjourned on 30 August, was held today.

The Supreme Court’s judge Reyqam Huseynov ruled that Ruslan Aliyev
[one of the imprisoned would-be Karabakh guerrillas] be released. He
also reduced Rustam Asgarov’s imprisonment term to six months,
Musviq Qurbanov’s term to two years and the other prisoners’ terms
to one year.

The court did not hear the cases of two guerrillas, Xizir Marqasvili
and Vusal Isayev.
