Hungarian court today held next trial hearing on jailer's claim
against Ramil Safarov, Azerbaijani Army officer, who was sentenced
to life in prison for murdering Armenian lieutenant Gurgen Markarian
in Hungary. Azerbaijani Embassy in Hungary told the APA three more
witnesses testified in the trial. They participated in the incident.
The next trial will be held on 17 November. Two more witnesses will
testify and, the court verdict will be announced.
Clara Fisher, Hungarian lawyer for Ramil defends him on this case.
While being held in Hungarian prison in 2004, jailers wanted telephone
card from Ramil. But Ramil could not understand Hungarian which led
an incident between them. Eight police officers tied his hands and
used force. Though lawyers for the Azerbaijani lieutenant appealed to
court related to this matter, the court dismissed the appeal saying
there was no evidence. Then the opposite side claimed that Ramil
resisted officials.
