Anti-Armenian hysteria in Azerbaijan leads to dreadful and wild behavior

PanARMENIAN.Net - But we'll dwell only on Gurgen Margaryan, or, to be more exact, on the motivation Safarov had for this barbaric act. The progressive anti-Armenian hysteria in Azerbaijan may lead to even more dreadful and wild behavior in future. It has already wiped off a thick layer of civilization under which we once again noticed the Turk asker's face, distorted with hatred and fury, an asker whose cherished dream was to murder Armenians. In order not to sound groundless, we'll quote the words of Safarov, who is considered a hero in his motherland, if not a shahid. By the way, the enthusiasm of Baku to take what is left lying around loose, brought to the term "shahid" to be smartly altered so that it meets the needs of the Azeri Agitation and Propaganda Department. "Shahid" is a martyr for belief, but never a street bandit like the 'heroic' soldier of the Azerbaijani Armed Forces. During the first interrogation, Safarov motivated.

During the first interrogation, Safarov motivated his deed as follows: "I regret I didn't kill any Armenian before… When I learnt there were two Armenians taking the same courses I felt hatred for them. When they greeted me I did not answer. One day they passed by and smiled. That moment I decided that I will cut off their heads at dawn. I tried to open the door and it opened, it wasn't locked. I turned on the light. Entering the door on the left bed the Armenian was lying facing the wall. The Hungarian was on the right hand side bed, but I didn't pay attention to the way he was lying. As I turned on the light the Armenian turned to his back, trying to open his eyes, but at that moment I hit him at the forehead with the flat side of the axe. The Hungarian guy woke up and told me in English: "Please… please…" I told him it was not his business and it was only between Armenians and Azeris. Then I turned the axe to the sharp side and hit the Armenian on the neck. I don't exactly remember where else I hit, but I also remember having hit him on the leg."

As a matter of principle, Safarov's deed is quite explicable. With current state in Azerbaijan, when the news headlines are crammed with criminals, drug addicts and perverts, such kind of actions are standard. It is only for civilized countries that any case of murder is considered savagery, while for nomads it is a natural state of mind. Floods of dirt and falsehood have already brought up in Azerbaijan a whole generation, for whom the assassination of an Armenian is heroism, and even duty. And if there is no Armenian close at hand, an Azeri is ready to kill, rape and spoil his neighbour, brother, or even mother. The other day the already closed website Day.az published a story about a child viciously beheaded by his father.

All the efforts of the Azerbaijani side to recognize Safarov irresponsible and achieve extradition to homeland proved useless. On April 13, 2006 the First Instance Court of Budapest sentenced Safarov to life imprisonment without a right of pardon for 30 years. In February 2007, the Budapest Court of Appeals upheld the verdict. But not only did Safarov commit a murder, he also s

But not only did Safarov commit a murder, he also started a fight with a policeman, thus getting another term in jail. No comment…

And lastly. On May 19, 2008 Safarov's lawyer Adil Ismailov organized a press-conference in the legal office "ADISAD" with participation of Rafik Ismailov, member of the "Human Rights XXI century - Azerbaijan" Foundation. Answering the question issued by Rafik Ismailov concerning violation of Safarov's rights at the trial, the lawyer said serious violations had been committed.

Especially, there was not taken into account Ramil Safarov's bad conduct of the Russian language and thus, he was deprived of his right to give evidence in the Azeri language with the help of an interpreter. The lawyer also noted that Safarov's first interrogation was carried out 8 hours after his detention. At the same time they failed to consider the weak moral- psychological and physical state of Ramil, which is a grave violation of the investigation process too.

Of course he was «morally weak»; after all killing an Armenian was a hard job for faint-hearted Safarov.
