PanARMENIAN.Net - Azerbaijani President's decision to pardon murderer
Ramil Safarov was not a surprise, according to editor-in-chief of
Aztag Beirut-based daily.
`Azerbaijan long ago cultivated Safarov's crime as a feat. The problem
lies in the Hungarian authorities, who appeared under Baku's girdle,'
Shahan Kandaharian told PanARMENIAN.Net adding that Armenians across
the globe should combine efforts against the immoral and unlawful act
of the Hungarian government.
Kandaharian rated Armenia's decision to suspend relations with Hungary
as a right step. `I am confident that Diaspora will raise this issue
in all countries,' he said.
Safarov, who was sentenced to life by a Hungarian court for the murder
of Armenian office Gurgen Margaryan in February 2004, was extradited
to Azerbaijan on Aug 31 and immediately pardoned by the country's
President Ilham Aliyev.
In response, Armenia suspended diplomatic relations with Hungary.
