Member of Parliament calls to punish Rahim Gaziyev

Thus, in an interview with the pro-government agency «Ses» and in the pages of the ruling body of the "Yeni Azerbaijan" party, Novruzov used phrases and expressions that fall under Article 148 of the Criminal Code (insult). In particular, he called Gaziyev "dishonest and unscrupulous," "not a man", "yard dog," "traitor," "Russian intelligence agent," "dog, which had to be shot, and his house should be burnt," etc.
Novruzov used such epithets in response to an open letter from Rahim Gaziyev to the president Ilham Aliyev; the letter called to respect people and not to violate the rights of citizens.
Commenting Turan this interview, a lawyer Alasgar Mammadov said that such expressions by Novruzov is a clear violation of the media law and the Articles of the Criminal Code.
"It is noteworthy that earlier courts considered an insult and brought to justice the editor of "Khural" newspaper for the expression "the press butcher." The newspaper "Azadlig" was brought to justice for comparing a parliamentarian Novruzali Aslanv with a literary character "Novruzali", said the lawyer.
Therefore, Rahim Gaziyev has every right to file a lawsuit against the author of the material, of the newspapers and Siyavush Novruzov, said Mammadov.
