Trend News Agency, Azerbaijan
April 11 2007
Azerbaijan, Baku / Ò corr K. Zarbaliyeva / The sentence and the
verdict of the Court of Appeal were announced to the attorney of
an Azerbaijani Armed Forces officer, Ramil Safarov, who had been
sentenced to life imprisonment by a Budapest Court on 13 April, 2006.
Attorney Ikram Shirinov, a member of the Safarovs and a representative
of the Azerbaijani Ministry of Defense, reported on 10 April that
he had received translated forms of the verdict made by the Court
of Appeal on the case of an Armenian officer’s death and prison
supervisors.
Shirinnov noted that he had spoken to Safarov on 10 April. They
discussed the idea of an appeal. But they failed to complete the
discussion due to a network breakdown.
The attorney stated that he would study the decision of the Court of
Appeal dating back to 22 February 2007 within a week. The draft of
the appeal is ready. It will be sent to the court next month.
At the decision made by the Pesht District Court in 2006, Safarov
was condemned to an eight month suspended sentence. He was accused
of insubordination to supervisors of the investigation cell.
