YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 13, ARMENPRESS: On September 14 a protest action
will take place in Moscow's Krasnopresnenskaya Zastava Square against
the extradition of the Azerbaijani murderer Ramil Safarov by the
Hungarian authorities to Azerbaijan and his pardoning and giving
a "national hero" by the Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev. As
Armenpress was informed by the Union of Russian Armenians, members
of the State Duma of the Russian Federation, political and public
figures, Russian Non-Governmental Organizations and representatives of
the Armenian community will deliver speeches during the protest action.
The Union of Russian Armenians held a rally on September 7 as well
in front of the Hungarian Embassy to the Russian Federation.
On February 19 2004 in Budapest Azerbaijani assassin Ramil Safarov,
who axe-murdered Armenian officer Gurgen Margaryan while sleeping,
when they were participating in NATO English Language Courses in the
capital of Hungary, was sentenced to life imprisonment without right
to be pardoned for 30 years. On August 31 2012 Safarov was extradited
from Hungary to Azerbaijan and was pardoned by the President Ilham
Aliyev. The murderer was advanced to mayor, provided with an apartment
and given "national hero" and compensated for the 8 years of the
imprisonment in Hungary. Armenia suspended diplomatic relations
with Hungary.
