Osmangyzy confirms the authenticity of the audit and notes that her conversation with journalist Chingiz Suyltansoy took place a month ago.
Osmangyzy believes that their conversation was illegally tapped and recorded by the secret services of Azerbaijan.
"The main question is how the audio recording was received. First of all, these are questions for mobile operators in the USA and Germany," said Osmangyzy.
According to her, this casts doubts on the safety of journalists living outside Azerbaijan.
"It turns out that the Government of Ilham Aliyev is persecuting citizens not only in Azerbaijan, but also abroad, tapping them, interfering their private life, engaging espionage activities. It is important to identify which technologies were used, who sold them to the government of Ilham Aliyev.
If the authorities do this against journalists abroad, then one can imagine what they are doing against dissidents and opponents of the regime inside the country.
"We must together demand from the Aliyev government an answer on what right they are tapping and recording my telephone conversations and espionage," she said.
Commenting on this matter, media expert Alesker Mammadli said that tapping telephone conversations of citizens implies criminal liability under the Article 155 of the country's Criminal Code.
"Victims with the help of lawyers can turn to the prosecutor"s office with a demand to initiate a criminal case," Mammadov said.
As for the technical side of the question, he does not exclude that there could be listening devices in the room where the conversation was conducted. -03B-
