The motives that made Ramil Safarov to act this way are not ordinary.

The court should pay attention to them and consider as extenuating
circumstances," the judge of Hungary Court of Appeal Andrash Braqyova
who is on visit to Azerbaijan told the journalists. Hungarian judge
said that Hungary press gives enough information about lifer Ramil
Safarov. Braqyova stressed that Armenian Diaspora’s interference to
the court affairs is inadmissible.

"I do not rule out any political declaration after court’s decision.

These declarations can even be made by Azerbaijani President.

According to the Hungary Legislation Ramil Safarov’s being granted
amnesty or pardon is possible only after trial will over," he said.

It should be noted that the court will consider Ramil Safarov’s appeal
in spring next year.
