"Confession" of the bribe giver
Resident of the village of Khafali in Shusha region, Nisbet Farhadova rejects the charges against her for fraud. According to her, she did not deceive anyone, and "honestly" gave bribes to law enforcement officers, and not assigned any manat.
On July 31 press office of the General Prosecutor Office said that Ogtay Novruzov, together with his friend Nisbet Farhadova, by prior agreement, received from Shadoglan Bakhshiyev 60,100 manat to cover a lawsuit which is being investigated by the Head Office to Combat Organized Crime (HOCOC) of the Interior Ministry. In this regard, the prosecution filed a lawsuit against Farhadova under the Article 178.3.2 (swindle.)
According to Farhadova, today in the media center, she transferred money to law enforcement agencies to mitigate the punishment to persons arrested for smuggling narcotics from Iran weighing 100 kg. She said the drugs were delivered to Azerbaijan by a group led by some Shahbaz.
From that batch of drugs, 30 kilo were distributed to several persons, however, the group has been exposed and arrested.
Then one of the arrested, Shadoglan Bakhshiev, through mediators found Farhadova, so that she obtained a mitigation of punishment through her connections in law enforcement. In turn, Farhadova met with the prosecutor of Baku city, Shahin Ismailov (now deceased), investigator of the HOCOC Haji Efendiev, deputy head of Astara regional police, named Arzu, etc.
According Farhadova, at different times, she gave Ismailov, Efendiyev and Arzu, tens of thousands of manat bribe. In addition, she organized a meeting of Sh.Bahshiev with his arrested son, and he told about concealed 10 kilo of drugs, which then were sold.
Farhadova claimed that for a bribe of 240,000 manat she obtained the conviction of Etibar, arrested for a year and a half for the sale of 30 kilo of drugs. He gave the money, sold all the homes, land, farms, said Farhadova.
However, lately the bribe-givers complained against Farhadova, and accused her of embezzling some part of the money. However, Farhadova claimed that she passed money to law enforcement officials, and gave journalists their phone numbers.
Farhadova believes that the Office to Combat Corruption under the General Prosecutor Office should investigate taking bribes by officials.
Interestingly, Farhadova is the head of the legal consultation.—03B06-
