Baku / 11.02.19 / Turan: At the trial on the case of embezzling the funds of the International Bank of Azerbaijan on February 11 in the afternoon, a former deputy, a businessperson Dunyamin Khalilov testified.
He said that he knew the former head of the IBA Jahangir Hajiyev for more than 40 years. They are friends and business partners. According to Khalilov, he created the General Construction Company on the advice of Hajiyev.
Khalilov said that the loans received by IBA were directed to job creation programs in the country.
Since the legislation of Azerbaijan prohibited the financing of IBA for foreign firms, Khalilov, with the knowledge of Hajiyev, created a number of companies to implement projects abroad.
