EXTRADITION OF AZERBAIJANI SABOTEURS COULD BE DISCUSSED BUT FOR RAMIL SAFAROV SYNDROME - LARISA ALAVERDYAN
15:55 * 30.12.14
But for the Ramil Safarov incident, extradition of the Azerbaijani
saboteurs, who have just been convicted in Nagorno-Karabakh, could be
discussed, Larisa Alaverdyan, Executive Director, Foundation Against
the Violation of Law (FAVL), told Tert.am.
"When a death sentence was passed on the Ukrainian pilots who had
dropped bombs on Stepanakert several times, I called for repatriating
them to Ukraine, which actually was done. The question is the
Ramil Safarov syndrome in Azerbaijan: the saboteurs' families were
provided with flats, and Ramil Safarov, even after he was convicted
for murdering a sleeping Armenian officer, received his salary from
Azerbaijan's government. This means that state is an accessory to
crimes," Ms Alaverdyan said.
Under the circumstances, no state would agree to extradition.
"Time will show what Artsakh [Nagorno-Karabakh] will do," she said.
On Monday, the Stepanakert Court passed a sentence on two Azerbaijani
saboteurs - Shahbaz Guliyev and Dilham Askerov - who crossed the
state border of the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic (NKR).
Dilham Askerov received a life sentence, and Shahbaz Guliyev was
sentenced to 22 years.
