    MP proposes to raise illegal gold tapping issue in international
    organizations


    The government is not taking urgent steps to prevent development of
    gold deposits by an Indian company in the Kalbajar District,
    Azerbaijan's region occupied by Armenia, MP Mais Safarli said
    addressing the Milli Majlis (parliament) on Friday, Assa Irada
    reported.

    The evidence on development of gold deposits by the Indian company in
    Kalbajar has been confirmed, Safarli said.

    `The Indian embassy in Baku was the first to confirm the fact.
    However, Azerbaijan's relevant bodies have not taken measures against
    it,' he said.


    Safarli suggested that Azerbaijan raise the issue at the OSCE and UN,
    if necessary.

    Elton Mammadov, deputy chairman of the permanent parliamentary
    commission on natural resources, energy and ecology, said that the
    issue is being investigated and expressed a hope that this will yield
    results.
