/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Latest trial in Budapest did not leave any chances
to the Azeri party, stated Hayk Demoyan, Armenian Defense Ministry’s
representative on the case of murder of an Armenian officer. In his
words, the murder is qualified as a purely criminal one in Hungary,
without any political implication.
“Within past two years the Azeri party constantly tried to politicize
the case, trying to document that the Nagorno Karabakh conflict
had allegedly served as the cause of the murder. Safarov’s lawyer
Adil Ismaylov tried to pass some documents to the judge, which were
officially returned to him with an accompanying letter that expressed
refusal to consider the package during the trial,” Demoyan said.
In his words, Turkey is very interested in soonest possible completion
of the trial, as Safarov was trained in military camps of Northern
Cyprus and Turkey will be exposed to risk if it is known.
Meanwhile, Demoyan remarked that Armenian media and individual
politicians paid too much attention to Safarov and made a number of
irresponsible statements, which hampered Hungary. “For two years we
passed the control at the Budapest airport without difficulty, while
this time we were searched for arms. This is due to a word carelessly
thrown,” the Armenian MOD representative said.
