    HUNGARIAN OMBUDSMAN REITERATES HIS REQUEST FOR DOCUMENTS ON RAMIL SAFAROV'S REPATRIATION

    The office of Fundamental Rights Ombudsman of Hungary Mate Szabo said
    on Monday that the Justice Ministry had not responded within 15 days
    to a request for information regarding Ramil Safarov's repatriation.

    According to www.budapesttimes.hu, the ministry responded by saying
    that Justice Minister Tibor Navracsics had replied promptly to Szabo's
    letter of 19 September, asking the ombudsman to submit an official
    request for access to classified documents.

    Szabo noted in his letter that Hungarian law prevents the repatriation
    of a convicted criminal in the absence of assurances that he will
    serve out the remainder of his sentence. The documents released by
    the government as the scandal broke in the days following Safarov's
    release contained no assurances from the Azeri side that the murderer
    would not be pardoned, referring only to a clause in the relevant
    treaty that prevents the alteration of the sentence.
