/PanARMENIAN.Net/ April 13 the sentence will be passed in Budapest
concerning Ramil Safarov, who hacked Armenian officer Gurgen
Margaryan. Safarov's lawyer Adil Ismaylov stated, "at the session
on April 4 the prosecutor demanded to deprive him of liberty for
30 years." However, later it was clear that the prosecutor demanded
life sentence.
According to the Zerkalo Baku-based newspaper, after long protraction
had to confess that "unfortunately Armenians speak the truth this
time." In this case, why it was necessary to state a week before that
the state prosecutor demanded 30 years, the newspaper asks.
As of whether politicization of the event hampered the trial of
Safarov, Ismaylov said, "it is quite normal that the case was
transferred to the political plane."
"I believe politicization hampered the Azeri officer by no means. To
the contrary, I think the Azeri society could not use that factor to
the full," the lawyer emphasized.
According to the Hungarian legislation, there are two options for
life sentence. According to the first the prisoner at the bar is
sentenced to life imprisonment without any conditions or chances
for release. The second is life sentence with a condition that the
accused has a right to submit an appeal for pardon in 30 years.
