As the captain of the vessel, Askerov collected information about foreign companies and representative offices of foreign states in Azerbaijan; about the place and time of naval exercises in the Caspian Sea; about cargo delivered to oil platforms and transmitted this information via mobile communication and during meetings with his supervisors in Iran.

Besides him, according to the investigation, Azerbaijani citizen Elnur Rasulov, while in Iran in 2018, was recruited by the Iranian special services. Later, he also involved his relative, Arif Rasudov, in espionage.
