I.Gumbatov: Azerbaijani government will provide funeral of T. Narimanbekov at a high level

The Government of Azerbaijan will provide the funeral of the People's Artist of Togrul Narimanbekov at a high level, regardless of where he is interred. The government is waiting for the decision of the court of France and the family of the deceased, the spokesman for the Ministry of Culture and Tourism of Azerbaijan Intigam Gumbatov told Turan.

 
However, he noted that the Azerbaijani authorities would like to see the People's Artist buried in his homeland. "However, between the second wife of Narimanbekov and his daughter, a dispute arose about the place of his burial. The Azerbaijani government is waiting for the final decision," said Gumbatov.
 
Togrul Narimanbekov died in Paris on June 2. He is a citizen of Azerbaijan and France. The second wife of Narimanbekov, Sevil Narimanbekovs wants him to be buried in Paris, while the daughter Esmer Narimanbekova wants her father buried in Baku.
 
June 18 the Paris court ruled that Narimanbekov's grave should be where his wife decides. However Narimanbekov's daughter intends to file an appeal.
 
According to Intigam Gumbatov, Azerbaijan is closely monitoring the situation and the relevant authorities of France have been presented the necessary documents. -03B04-
