PanARMENIAN.Net - Leader of Humanist Party of Azerbaijan Oqtay Atakhan accused Russian special forces of the explosion in Abu Bekir mosque.

"It is now possible to state that terror acts were committed by Russian special services to further encourage separatist movements inside the country, but this time under the flag of Islam, destabilize the country on the threshold of the presidential election, again remind of the fundamentalist Iran and initiate attack by the United States," he said, Day.az reports.
