AZERBAIJANI EXTRADITION - FOREIGN MINISTRY SAYS AZERBAIJAN'S ACTION UNACCEPTABLE
Ministry of Foreign Affair

Hungary
Hungary's Foreign Ministry told the ambassador of Azerbaijan in
Budapest on Sunday that the actions that followed the transferral home
of life-sentenced Azerbaijani Ramil Sahib Safarov are unacceptable to
Hungary, the foreign affairs state secretary at the prime minister's
office told Hunagrian News Agency MTI.
Peter Szijjarto reiterated that Hungary had acted in compliance with
the European Council's convention on the transfer of sentenced persons.
The legal representative of Safarov, convicted for murdering Armenian
fellow-soldier Gurgen Margaryan with an axe in 2004, has requested
from Hungary's justice ministry that he should be allowed to serve
the remaining part of his prison sentence in his home country,
Szijjarto said. After the Hungarian Justice Ministry had contacted
the Azerbaijani authorities, they informed the ministry that the crime
that Safarov was convicted for would also qualify as a criminal act in
Azerbaijan and the punishment could be a life sentence. The authorities
also informed the ministry that Safarov would continue to serve his
sentence in Azerbaijan if he is transferred home, Szijjarto said.
Since Azerbaijan has failed to act in line with the official document
sent to Hungary, the Hungarian Foreign Ministry told the ambassador
of Azerbaijan that this course of action had been unacceptable for
Hungary.
On returning to Azerbaijan on Friday, Safarov requested and got a
pardon from his country's president. Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan
said in Yerevan later in the day that Armenia had decided to break
diplomatic ties with Hungary.
