“I do not want to leave for Hungary with my current responsibilities
next time. They demand much from me but I do not have a right as a
lawyer. I only represent Ramil Safarov’s family in Hungary,” legal
representative of Azerbaijani army officer Ramil Safarov’s family,
lawyer Adil Ismayilov said.
The lawyer told APA that one person should be charged with the case
on Safarov, and that person should have wide responsibilities.
Ismayilov also said that it is not enough attending only trials in
Hungary. Some issues are needed to be done before the trial. And all
these can be done by a responsible person.
Adil Ismayilov expressed his dissatisfaction with the speech
delivered by the Hungarian lawyer for Ramil Safarov in the trial. He
said there are enough professional lawyers in Azerbaijan who can
defend Ramil’s rights.
Spokesman of Azerbaijani Defense Ministry Ilgar Verdiyev told APA
that Hungarian laws do not let an Azerbaijani lawyer defend Safarov’s
rights. Safarov’s father Sahib Safarov told APA that it is early to
say whether Adil Ismayilov will be charged with additional
responsibilities. He said the issue will be cleared after meeting and
discussing it with Ismayilov.
The Budapest court has recently jailed Azerbaijani army officer Ramil
Safarov to life in prison for murdering Armenian army officer Gurgen
Markarian in Hungary.
