Baku/20.10.22/Turan: The Supreme Court partially satisfied the cassation appeal of the former Azerbaijani ambassador to Serbia and the country's former prosecutor general Eldar Hasanov, who was sentenced to 10 years in prison on charges of economic crimes.

The Supreme Court overturned the decision to confiscate the property of Hasanov's three children - Anar Hasanov, Emilia Gurbanova and Sabina Huseynova, the lawyer Javad Javadov. The confiscation of part of the property of the wife of the ex-Prosecutor General Elmira Hasanova has also been canceled. The defense also intends to file a cassation appeal on the merits of the verdict.

In July 2020, Eldar Hasanov was arrested by the State Security Service  togther with several other employees of the Consular Service of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

In January of this year, the Baku  Serious Crimes Court found him guilty and sentenced to 10 years in prison. In April, the Baku Court of Appeal upheld this verdict.

It is noteworthy that three other high-ranking employees of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, arrested  together with Hasanov, accused of embezzlement of a similar scale, were very soon released from custody and subsequently sentenced to suspended sentences.

Hasanov himself stated in court that he was the victim of intrigues against him by high-ranking representatives of the presidential administration. -06B-
