    Leyla Yunusova carry out activity contrary to Azerbaijan's national interests

    Baku, Azerbaijan, July 31
    By Elchin Mehdiyev - Trend:


    While carrying out activity contrary to the national interests of
    Azerbaijan, Leyla Yunusova created a false world public opinion about
    the country, president of the National NGO Forum Rauf Zeyni told Trend
    on July 31.

    He was commenting on the arrest of the director of the Institute for
    Peace and Democracy, Leyla Yunusova.

    Zeyni stressed that the head of each organization, each
    non-governmental organization and in general each person is
    responsible for their own actions.

    "Leyla Yunusova and her entourage conveyed biased information to the
    world public, introduced the people to the world community whose
    crimes were proven, as political prisoners, disseminated false
    information about Azerbaijan, cooperated with the Armenians," he
    added.

    "All except Armenians, Leyla Yunusova and her entourage supported
    holding "Eurovision" song contest in Azerbaijan," he said.

    "Leyla Yunusova and her entourage gained support of some international
    organizations, which even began to believe that Azerbaijan really has
    such a situation as Leyla Yunusova says," he added.

    "I believe that law enforcement bodies are investigating these issues
    objectively," he said.

    "The Azerbaijani government has created all the conditions for
    conducting independent investigation," he said. "These conditions were
    created for the world public to know the truth. Leyla Yunusova's
    activity will be assessed under the law."

    Leyla Yunusova was accused under articles 274, 178.3.2, 192.2.2,
    213.2.2, 320.1 and 320.2, Arif Yunusov - under Articles 274 and
    178.3.2 of the Criminal Code, according to the report.

    In a joint statement of the Prosecutor General's Office and the
    Ministry of National Security, defendants Leyla Yunusova and Arif
    Yunusov's rights for legal aid, lawyer's services, envisaged by the
    criminal procedural legislation were ensured. Their rights will be
    protected by their own lawyers.

    A criminal procedure law was not violated during the investigation,
    the report underlines.

    Taking into account the fact that Leyla Yunusova tried to leave the
    country, not to testify without a valid reason and illegally pressured
    Matanat Azizova and others questioned as witnesses in the case, a
    preventive measure in the form of arrest was chosen for Leyla Yunusova
    upon a decision of the Nasimi district court. Taking into account Arif
    Yunusov's health, a preventive measure in the form of law enforcement
    surveillance was chosen for him.

    Leyla Yunusova and her husband Arif Yunusov were arrested by law
    enforcement bodies of Azerbaijan on Wednesday.

    Leyla Yunusova and her husband Arif Yunusov were repeatedly summoned
    as witnesses to testify in a criminal case, considered in the Heinous
    Crime Investigation Department of the Prosecutor General's Office of
    Azerbaijan. But they deliberately did not appear to testify, the
    Prosecutor General's Office reported earlier.

    Leyla Yunusova with her husband Arif Yunusov intended to leave the
    country on April 28, trying to evade investigation. This attempt was
    prevented.
