Jeyranov�s Trial Starts in Tbilisi

Baku / 13.07.17 / Turan: A preparatory meeting was held in Tbilisi City Court on July 12 on the case of Farman Jeyranov, an Azerbaijani surgeon and co-founder of the Lancet Clinic in the Georgian capital.

Jeyranov's lawyer told Radio Azadlig that a group of lawyers headed by Gela Nikolashvili defends the surgeon. The lawyers have filed a petition to replace the real arrest with a domestic one, but the court rejected the motion, arguing that Jeyranov might abscond.

The trial will continue on July 25.

Jeyranov's lawyers believe his arrest is politically motivated. It is known that representatives of the Azerbaijani opposition were treated in his clinic. -0--
