PanARMENIAN.Net - Baku doesn't give up attempts to extradite the
murderer of Armenian officer Gurgen Margaryan to Azerbaijan.
"Extradition of Ramil Safarov is possible if Azerbaijan and Hungary
achieve a relevant agreement," chairman of the Azerbaijani Supreme
Court Ramiz Rzayev said. "We are working to that end."
Lieutenant of the Armenian Armed Forces Gurgen Margaryan, 26,
was hacked to death while asleep by fellow Azerbaijani participant
Safarov in Budapest during a three-month English language course in
the framework of Partnership for Peace NATO-sponsored program.
In accordance with Budapest District Court sentence dated April 13,
2006, Ramil Safarov was life imprisoned for murdering Margaryan. On
February 22, 2007, Budapest Court rejected the Azerbaijani military
officer's appeal against the verdict which excluded possibility
of pardon for the initial 30 years. The appeal court ruled that the
ruling brought by Budapest District Court against 30-year-old Safarov,
should stand.
