The fate of the former minister of national security remains unclear
Baku / 06.11.17 / Turan: The message of the Prosecutor General's Office about the summons for ex-Minister of National Security Eldar Mahmudov on interrogation last Saturday, has not yet been continued. From this message it was not clear when exactly he was summoned, was there an interrogation, in what capacity did they intend to interrogate him?
The Prosecutor General's Office does not give explanations on this matter and the press service of the agency Turan said that they cannot add anything to what was said. Therefore, one can only guess what is happening around the figure of Mahmudov, whose assistant and relative Vugar Mahmudov was arrested last week on charges of committing serious crimes. He became the 22nd high-ranking officer of the former Ministry of National Security, brought to criminal responsibility. -02D-
