Lawyer Adil Ismayilov, official representative of the family of
Azerbaijani army officer Ramil Safarov, who is accused of killing
an Armenian officer in Hungary, held a press conference on the last
trial of Safarov held on 7 March (APA).
The lawyer said that the opinion of the 4th forensic medical
examination was announced in the last trial. He added that the opinion
of the 4th examination coincided with the 1st medical examination.
"According to the conclusion of the 1st forensic medical examination,
Ramil Safarov had consciousness when he committed a crime. In the 2nd
examination, Safarov was reported to be partially conscious and to
be unconscious, according to conclusion of the 3rd medical examination.
Ramil Safarov would receive a light punishment if the opinion of the
1st forensic medical examination was in force," the lawyer said.
"The matter is, the first expert Gal Kafalina proposed in the previous
trial that Ergin Nat and Gabr Kovach conduct the forensic medical
examination. Thus, these experts are close to Gal Kafalina.
The final examination was conducted by the experts recommended by
Kafalina, and the conclusion of the 1st examination was reaffirmed,"
Ismayilov reported.
The lawyer also said though Safarov's intellectual level was low
evaluated during the 1st examination but highly during the last one.
The cause is Safarov was interrogated in Russian first time, but in
Turkish for the last one.
Assistant director of the school Safarov graduated from, Colonel
Atilla Demeter and Major Zoltan Balton also testified in the last
trial. They expressed their satisfaction of Ramil. The next trial of
Ramil Safarov was appointed to April 4 and 13.
The sides will address the trial on 4 April, and court decision will be
made on 13 April. The lawyer also said that Safarov can be extradited
to Azerbaijan after the court award. He guessed that Ramil who is
accused of Article 166 of Hungarian Criminal Code can be sentenced
to 10 or 15 years in jail.
"I do not think he will be sentenced to life imprisonment," the
lawyer added.
Ismayilov also expressed his dissatisfaction of Azerbaijani televisions
not attending the trials of Ramil.
"Two or three Armenian televisions film every trial. This influences
the court to a certain extent. None of the Azerbaijani TV channels
has ever filmed the trial. The chair of the Armenian Bar Ruben
Saakyan attended the last trial. I think Azerbaijani high officials
should participate in the trials. This issue should be made urgent,"
Ismayilov said.
