Some media outlets, including Armenian TV companies, made reports
according to which Ramil Safarov, who murdered an Armenian officer,
Gurgen Margaryan, in Hungary, later may be transferred to Azerbaijan
to undergo his punishment there. Safarov was sentenced to life
imprisonment by the Hungarian authorities. The reports referred to
Androsh Bragiova, judge of the Hungarian Constitutional Court, who
supposedly said that Safarov may be transferred later.
Haik Demoyan, head of Genocide Museum, who participated in the trial
in Budapest as a representative of the Armenian defense ministry,
refuted such rumors, saying the information was released by the Azeri
media and may possible be misinformation. "We have witnessed Azeri
misinformation during the recent few years," he said.
By not excluding the possibility of transfer, the Hungarian judge may
have been just diplomatic, Demoyan said. He is sure if the transfer
were made, the Armenian parties would have been informed.
