    U.S. WANTS TO SEE AZERI MURDERER SAFAROV BEHIND BARS

    PanARMENIAN.Net - A spokesperson for the U.S. Department of State, Ms.
    Victoria Nuland said the United States is in touch with Azerbaijan
    regarding the pardon of Armenian officer's murderer Ramil Safarov.

    " Well, we, as you know, issued a statement about this after the
    Hungarians released him back to Azerbaijan, and we have been in touch
    with the Azerbaijanis and urging them to meet commitments that they
    reportedly made to the Hungarians in advance of the release," she
    told a daily press briefing.

    On August 31, 2012, Hungary extradited Safarov - who brutally murdered
    Armenian officer Gurgen Margaryan, in his sleep during a Budapest-based
    NATO language course in 2004 - to Baku to serve no less than 25 years
    of the life sentence imposed by the Hungarian justice system. However,
    immediately upon arrival, Safarov was pardoned by the Azerbaijani
    President, given an 8-year salary and promoted to major.
