Special services of Azerbaijan rendered harmless 17 people who were
initiating "power seizure", Arif Babayev, the spokesman of the National
Security Ministry (MNS) of Azerbaijan, informed "Itar-Tass".
The grouping was revealed due to the operative-investigative measures
taken by NS representatives.
"All the members of the grouping are arrested and they are currently
in the isolation cells of the National Security", says Babayev. They
are accused of country betrayal, power seizure, formation of criminal
grouping, money forgery and illegal preservation of drugs.
Currently, the Official Azerbaijan doesn’t comment on the arrest. Arif
Babayev claims that it is too early to say anything on this score. "The
investigation is under way and we cannot say anything about the origin
of the grouping". More likely they will spread information on the
latest event via official sources.
