Preliminary investigation in the case of football player Javid Huseynov is over

Preliminary investigation  in the case of Javid Huseynov, football player  of the FC "Gabala", who was involved in the death of journalist Rasim Aliyev, is over. In the coming days the case will be submitted to the court, reads the message of Baku Prosecutor's Office.

Reporter  of the site ann.az Rasim Aliyev was beaten on 8 August  by relatives of the player  Javid Huseynov because of criticism  on Facebook. With heavy grasses journalist was taken to City Clinical Center N1, where he died a day later.

Six peoplehave been arrested in the case of death of  Rasim Aliyev. At the end of the investigation the case against Huseynov was separated from production. He is charged with Article 307.1 (not a report on the planned crime) and 307.2 (concealment of the crime) of the Criminal Code. However, the defense believes that Huseynov is the organizer of the crime.

 The lawyer of the  journalist’s family,  Asabali Mustafayev  regards illegal  the separation of the case against Huseynov after the preliminary investigation has  completed and the parties got acquainted with the case. This decision, according to Mustafayev,  is further evidence of "promoting  Javid Huseynov by the persecutor." "From the beginning we said that accusing Huseynov only "of concealing a crime," the prosecutor's office is helping him. Our suspicions are justified," said Mustafayev.

The case against the five accused of involvement in the journalist's death Aliyev was previously sent to the court.  Kanan Madatov, Jamal Mammadov and Samir Mustafayev, charged under Article 126.3 (deliberate infliction of grievous bodily harm, negligently caused the death of the victim) will  appear in the court. Two more accused Elshan Ismayilov and Arif Aliyev  are accused of theft (Art. 177.1 of the Criminal Code). A preparatory meeting is scheduled for 5 January. -16/06D-
