Scandal at the trial in the case of Parviz Hashimli
There was a scandal at today's trial in the case of the journalist Parviz Hashimli, chaired by Novruz Kerimov in Baku Serious Crimes Court.
According to the lawyer Bahruz Bayramov, second defendant in the case is Tavakkyul Gurbanov said that Parviz Hashimli insulted him in the press. However, Hashimli called the charges unfounded. Therefore an irate Gurbanov tried to hit Hashimli through the bars, but the guards managed to prevent it. Then the court considered the petition of Hashimli’s lawyer to call additional witnesses, but rejected it.
In turn, Hashimli said that in the MNS he was offered one million dollars testifying against the brothers Ali and Veli Nagiyeva, former Deputy National Security Ministry and his brother, the current deputy head of the Anti- Corruption Prosecutor General's Office , as well as against Javid Gurbanov - head of "Azeryolservis."
After such statements Hashimli felt bad, and the trial was stopped. The next trial will be held on May 5.
* Parviz Hashimli was arrested by the MNS on September 17, 2013. In March, the term of his imprisonment was extended for another three months. He is accused of smuggling (Article 206.3.2 ) and illegal acquisition and possession of weapons (Article 228.2.1.)
