Baku/06.09.12/Tuarn: The Council of Heads of CIS Interior Ministries will be headed by the Minister of Internal Affairs of Azerbaijan, and not by the Russian Minister, as Armenia wants. This was stated by a source in the Office for the Coordination of Fight against Organized Crime and Other Dangerous Crimes in the Territory of the CIS Countries (BKBOP), RIA Novosti reported.
According to the source, the transfer of these powers by the Armenian side to Russia has no legal grounds.
The Armenian police earlier sent a message to the Council meeting, which is to be held in Baku on September 6-8, with an expression of protest against the extradition from Hungary and the subsequent pardon by Azerbaijan of the Azerbaijani officer Ramil Safarov, who murdered an Armenian colleague in Budapest in 2004, and stated refusal to participate in the meeting. According to the press service of the Ministry, the chief of the Armenian police delegated the chairman authority to the Russian Minister of Internal Affairs.
"According to regulations of the Council of Heads of the Ministries of Interior of the CIS countries, the transfer of authority is arranged by rotation in the Latin alphabetical order. So after Armenia the chairmanship in the organization goes to Azerbaijan," said the source.
He also noted that "the transfer of authority can only be at the Board meeting, and another format is not provided." "Therefore, the decision to transfer the powers from the head of the Armenian police to the Minister of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation does not comply with the regulations of the Council and is unlikely to entail any legal consequences," said the source.
According to him, in the absence of representatives of the Armenian police at the meeting, the summary report on the work of the Board is likely to be performed by the BKBOP Director, Colonel-General of Police, Nikolai Ovchinnikov. -0 -
