Baku / 04.10.18 / Turan: Today, the Baku Court of Appeal considered the complaint of Younis Safarov, accused of attempting to kill the former head of Ganja, Elmar Veliyev.
Younis Safarov complained of torture and deprivation of his advocacy in the person of lawyer Elchin Sadigov.
However, the appeals instance rejected the complaint, upholding the decision of the Sabail District Court. Turan was told by a source in the Baku Court of Appeal.
At the same time, Safarov himself was not brought to court.
On the eve, Safarov's mother, Leila Ismayilova, made a statement that under torture her son was forced to incriminate his own lawyer.
