"If Polad Aslanov refuses his lawyers and re-testimony, it means that pressure was exerted on him in the State Security Service, and he was forced to refuse. In fact, Polad Aslanov wants to testify again in the presence of his lawyers. He also spoke about this in a court statement," emphasizes the journalist's spouse.
