PanARMENIAN.Net - The sentence of the Budapest regarding Azeri officer Ramil Safarov is "unfair," lawyer Adil Ismaylov stated in an interview with ANS TV channel. Budapest court judge András Vaskuti announced the verdict, according to which officer of the Armed Forces of Azerbaijan Ramil Safarov is sentenced to life imprisonment. In Ismaylov's words, the resolution can be appealed against in 30 years.



To remind, within the framework of NATO Partnership for Peace Program Azeri military officer Ramil Safarov was sent by the Ministry of Defense to Hungary for participation in English language trainings in January-February 2004. Several days before the completion of the course, on February 19, he hacked Armenian officer Gurgen Margaryan with an axe. Safarov and his lawyer decided to appeal against the Budapest court decision, Trend reports.
