    TREND Information, Azerbaijan
    Nov 18 2006

    On November 17, the officer of the Azerbaijani Armed Forces Ramil
    Safarov appeared in Hungarian Court for the second time, and was
    conditionally convicted by the Court of the Pesht region of Budapest
    for a period of 8 months, Trend reports quoting the Azerbaijani
    Embassy in Hungary.

    The court session was presided by the Judge Tota Dondosh. Ramil
    Safarov's rights were protected by the Advocate Clara Fisher.

    It should be mentioned that Ramil Safarov, accused of the assassination
    of the Armenian officer Gurgen Markaryan, was also accused of the
    resistance against the employees of the Hungarian prison during
    investigation. According to the accusation, on June 19, 2004, the
    employees of the Hungarian court came to the cell of Safarov and
    required him to give the telephone card. Safarov refused to fulfill
    the requirement and resisted against the employees of the prison.

    During the court session, on November 17, two witnesses were questioned
    and after this, the state accuser made a 30-minute speech, where he
    stated that Ramil Safarov is accused of the items 229 (resistance
    against the state employees) and 170 (inflicting physical injuries)
    of the Hungarian Criminal Code, which intend a criminal punishment
    of up to 3 years.

    The speech of the Advocate Clara Fisher took an hour and a half. She
    mentioned the discrepancy in the evidences of the witnesses and
    required the court to close the case.

    Ramil Safarov stressed that at the beginning of the investigation he
    did not understand the Hungarian language. He added that 33 months
    have past since the incident, but no incidents with the employees of
    the Hungarian prison have been observed.

    The Court cancelled the accusation with the item 170, conditionally
    convicting Safarov with the item 229 for a period of 8 months.

    It should be mentioned that on April 13, 2006, Safarov was sentenced by
    the Hungarian Court for life time imprisonment due to the assassination
    of the Armenian officer.
