The Ministry for National Security (MNS) of Azerbaijan is now
identifying the persons, who gave their votes for the participants
from Armenia at the musical competition "Eurovision-2009".

As reported by one of the voters – an Azerbaijani Rovshen Nasirli –
on August 12 he was summoned for interrogation to the MNS, where he
was asked to explain his act in writing.

"I was summoned to the MNS and ordered to write an explanatory note
on why I had voted for Armenia at the contest ‘Eurovision-2009’. They
told me that it was important for the state security. I was under
psychological pressure; they offended me: ‘You have no nationality; why
did you give your vote to Armenia?’, and I answered: ‘If Azerbaijani
deputies go to Armenia, why ordinary citizens can’t vote for the song
they liked?’" Mr Nasirli said on air of the local Radio Liberty.

According to the Azerbaijani, the officers who interrogated him had
in hands the list of all TV viewers who had voted for Armenia with
indication of their addresses and telephone numbers. In total, there
are 43 such "traitors". According to the Radio, this data could be
obtained by special services from the "Azercell" mobile operator.
