    The amount of funds amassed so far in the help-the-army fund of the
    Azerbaijani armed forces totals 6.72bn manats [1.37m dollars]. A total
    of 14,000 dollars have been transferred into the fund in foreign
    currency, the press service of the Azerbaijani Defence Ministry has
    told Bilik Dunyasi news agency.

    The ministry spokesman, Ramiz Malikov, said that these donations
    would not be spent on Azerbaijani officer Sr Lt Ramil Safarov who is
    being charged with killing an Armenian officer in Budapest.

    "The Azerbaijani president and commander-in-chief, Ilham Aliyev,
    keeps the fund's spending under his personal control," Col Malikov
    said.
