Azerbaijan will send a note to the Russian Foreign Ministry in connection with the detention of a citizen suspected of murder in Moscow Biryulyovo, and will require to provide him consular assistance, Azerbaijani Ambassador to Russia Polad Bulbul Oglu said.

"We have prepared a note to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs , we will send it tomorrow , we will require consular assistance , condemning the man who is suspected of the killing. Lawyers should be allowed to him, if necessary, an interpreter should be also allowed and everything should go in the legal field," said the Ambassador of Azerbaijan in the air of Dozhd TV.

The diplomat noted that if the data about the involvement of Zeynalov in the crime are confirmed, then he is " worthy of the highest conviction."

The Ambassador emphasized that "only the court can say if he committed the crime, or not. If he did it, he deserves the highest conviction ."

Bulbul Oglu said the arrest of Zeynalov was made with violations and the coverage of these events in the Russian media was a "hysteria."

" It violates all the laws of the Judicial Code. Already defenders wrote on the Internet that the rights of the prisoner are violated. He is a foreigner and he should be treated accordingly," he said.

" This, in general, was a street fight, a domestic murder that takes place in big cities every day. This is not uncommon. For the police it's working life. You look around this kind of staged hysteria," he said. He noted that, according to the news, an Azerbaijani was killed in Moscow on nthe same day - he was found dead in a parking lot at 13:00.

He also talked about a time when an Azerbaijani was murdered by a Russian in Azerbaijan. " We also have the media and we also have the opportunity to raise people, saying that a Russian killed an Azerbaijani and it is necessary to move all Russians from our homeland. But we do not do this," he stressed. -02/16D-
