officer Ramil Safarov indicted for the assassination of the Armenian
officer Gurgen Margaryan took place. The prosecutor stated that at the
moment of committing the crime the murderer was sane. The prosecutor

the statement that by this monstrous murder Ramil Safarov disgraced
the honor of Hungary as a host country. According to the prosecutor,
on arriving in Hungary Gurgen Margaryan did not think that he would
not be able to return home, he did not think that his life would be
endangered in Hungary. After the prosecutor’s speech, the defender
