his replacement from his house in 1992 and demands restoration of
his property right as specified by the European Convention.
Asgraov said that the European Court took the case into consideration
and has commenced correspondence in this respect. "We have submitted
to the European Court all the materials testifying that appeals are
groundless," he said.
