Ramil Safarov's lawyers going to issue cassation complaint to Hungarian court

August 6, 2007 - 15:11 AMT
PanARMENIAN.Net - A cassation appeal on the case of Azeri army officer Ramil Safarov will be sent to the Hungarian court in September, judge Ikram Shirinov said.



An appeal on "Safarov's alleged disobedience to the warders" will be also considered, he added.



Besides, Mr Shirinov informed that lawyer Elmar Kerimov and another lawyer, whose name is not announced, as the contract hasn't been concluded with him yet, are dealing with the Safarov case, Day.az reported quoting Lider TV channel.



February 19, 2004 Armenian Armed Forces officer Gurgen Margaryan, who was taking an English language course in Budapest within Partnership for Peace NATO program, was brutally axed asleep by his Azeri fellow Ramil Safarov. The Hungarian court sentenced Safarov to life imprisonment without a right for pardon during the initial 30 years.



In November 2006 the warders brought an action against Safarov. He was accused of putting up resistance and injuring a state official and was given an 8-month suspended sentence.
