"Hayots Ashkharh" has already touched upon the death attempt on
political scientist Levon Melik-Shahnazaryan in his country house
in Ptghny.
The site of the General Prosecutor's reports the inquest of the
criminal case with regard to the participants is over and has been sent
to the court and the inquest of the organizers is still on. Why did it
happen? Why did these people terrorize the political scientist? Levon
Melik Shahnazaryan responds our questions.
"Was the version advanced by you saying that the death attempt
was organized by Azerbaijani top authorities, in the person of the
country's President Ilham Aliev confirmed?"
"Firstly I must say that after the first telephone call the criminal,
a certain Arshak Aghabekyan, from Marneul in Georgia used to call
me every day, sometimes even two-three times a day. I was recording
those telephone conversations and promising that very soon they will
see that message. At last I told them that on May 8 the announcement
would be published in the newspapers. We already knew from where he
was calling. The police were controlling all the telephone calls. And
when he came to Armenia to buy a newspaper he was immediately caught.
After changing his testimonies several times, in his last testimony
he20 said that there were two of them, both from Georgia and the
one who ordered the murder was from Azerbaijan, someone who enjoys
respect and authority in Georgia and Russia.
That "orderer" was, in fact, a mediator between the real "orderers"
and the participants; he said that he received the order long ago. He
had lost lots of money in casinos and wanted to earn money.
These people promised 10 thousand dollars for the murder and they
said that the "orderer" is not interested in how they will kill me,
with knife or with gun, etc.
These people were convinced that they have killed me because they fired
from the distance of 3 meters, when I was standing near the window
in a very light room. But luckily the bullet hit the railing. Next
day they reported that they have accomplished the order and demanded
their money but the Azerbaijanis didn't give the money, they said
they would not give the money until they see the recording."
"If I'm not mistaken you linked the death attempt with concrete
publications."
"During those days I went through my archives to see what made Baku
so furious, because it is not the first or the second year that I'm
writing on those topics. I have various books about Azerbaijan's
internal and external policy, about national minorities, hundreds of
scientific and journalistic articles.
Finally I came to a conclusion that there are two reasons. First: I had
information that it was not Heidar Aliev who signed the decree about
appointing Ilham Aliev a Prime Minister, because at that time he was
in coma, but the Chief of Heidar Aliev's guards, Beylar Eyubov. And
in my extensive article I touched upon that fact in detail. I wrote
when and where it happened, in whose presence, and what happened with
all those people who participated in the deception of the state level.
The second reason could have been the fact that I was trying to clarify
the ethnic identity of the present day Azerbaijani high-ranking
officials. The fact that Ilham Aliev is Kurd is not a secret for
anyone, even in Azerbaijan. Moreover I managed to clarify that all
the high-ranking officials in Azerbaijan are Kurds.
The same Eyubov who is one of the most influential persons in
Azerbaijan is also a Kurd, the Head of the Presidential staff Ramiz
Mehtiev, who is considered the lord of the Western Azerbaijan, Major of
Baku Abutalibov, General Director of the State Oil Company Abdullaev -
all of them are Kurds. The owner of the biggest holding in Azerbaijan
"Azersun" Abdulhary Gyozal, Director of the State TV and Radio Company
Rauf Alishanov, Head of Nakhijevan Autonomy Rasif Talibov, Minister
of Emergency Situations Kyamaladin Heydarov are also Kurds.
I can continue this list - the Foreign Minister is Tat,20Minister of
Defense is Lezgy, both of them are very loyal and devoted to Kurds.
I wrote about all this based on well-grounded facts. I have also
written about the links of Heydarov and Gyozal with Kurdish Labor
Party."
