Safarov must bear punishment in equal conditions with criminals who committed brutal murders: attorney
For the first time the ECHR ruling registers the fact of Armenophobia by Azerbaijan, attorney Levon Gevorgyan said at a news conference today, referring to the ECHR ruling.
“Armenophobia has been considered undeniable. As to the second part of the ruling – violation of right to live – Azerbaijan has undertaken a lot of steps to justify murderer Safarov’s deed. Azerbaijan has many times tried to ground as if Safarov acted in stress while these attempts did not succeed,” he said, adding that the Armenian side tried to ascribe the crime committed in the private status to the state.
“Our allegation during this whole period was that with its actions Azerbaijan accepted and recognized the actions of Safarov who brutally murdered the Armenian officer as own actions,” the attorney said.
Another attorney Siranuysh Sahakyan said that Azerbaijan will try to do everything for Safarov to bear his punishment in Azerbaijan, but they will demand that the murderer be sent to a country where he will bear the punishment in equal conditions with those who committed brutal crimes.
