Azerbaijani officer Senior Lt Ramil Safarov, who has been sentenced
to life imprisonment by a Budapest court on charges of killing an

court examined a law suit filed by prison wardens against Safarov.
After witnesses and the sides testified at the trial, the sentence
was announced. According to the Azerbaijani embassy in Hungary,
Safarov was sentenced to eight months' suspended imprisonment.
To recap, when prison wardens demanded that Safarov return a telephone
card on 19 June 2004, Safarov who does not speak Hungarian did not
understand what they wanted, which led to a conflict between them.
