AZERBAIJAN WANTS HOMICIDE OFFICER TO SERVE PRISON TERM AT HOME
BAKU, APRIL 25, ARMENPRESS: Azerbaijani justice ministry said last week
it will negotiate with Hungarian authorities to have Ramil Safarov, an
Azerbaijani officer, who had hacked to death his Armenian counterpart Gurgen
Margarian on February 19, 2004, sent to Azerbaijan to serve his prison term
after the Hungarian court issues its verdict.
Both were participants of an English language training course within the
framework of the NATO-sponsored "Partnership for Peace" program held in
Budapest, Hungary. The murder occurred at 5 o'clock in the morning, while
the victim was asleep.
The trial of Safarov is set to resume on May 10.
Zaver Gafarov, head of an Azerbaijani justice ministry department, said
the ministry will base its petition on the European Convention on
Extradition of Convicts, which Baku had joined several years ago.
