April 6 2006
Trial of Azerbaijani Army officer Ramil Safarov, who is indicted for
murder of Armenian officer Gurgen Margaryan, in Budapest brought
together Azerbaijani students, Turks living in Hungary as well as
many media representatives.
Head of the Azerbaijan-Belgium House Bulent Gurjami, who attended
the trial in Budapest, told APA that after reviewing the reports, the
judge presiding the court process at the beginning asked to consider
opinions of experts newly included into the materials of the criminal
case. The defendant’s petition was refused.
Public prosecutor said in his one-hour speech that all evidences were
against Ramil Safarov. The prosecutor concluded that Ramil Safarov
preplanned this crime and it was not accidental that it was committed
on the eve of the anniversary of the Armenia-Azerbaijan war. Taking
into account that this was the first crime committed by Safarov,
the prosecutor asked to sentence him for 30 years in jail.
The lawyer of Ramil Safarov addressing the court said that the
Azerbaijani officer did not commit the murder consciously and his
unconsciousness was proved by experts. The trial was appointed to
April 13. Ramil Safarov will address the process with final statement
and will be sentenced.
