On August 8, the request of the former senior official of the Head Investigation Department of the Azerbaijani Interior Ministry Haji Mammadov regarding conducting close court session to provide evidences about Azer Ismayilov wasnt accepted. The court session for the criminal cases Haji Mammadiv and the band headed by him is held in the Heinous Crimes Court of Azerbaijani under chair of judge Ali Seyfaliyev,Trend reports.

At the beginning of the court session, Mammadov stressed that he wants to present information about the department chief of the Department for Fight with Narcotism of the Interior Ministry Azer Ismayilov who was kidnapped and killed by Mammadov in 2000. This information is very important from the point of view of statehood. Besides, this information doesnt need to be widely disseminated. Therefore, I would like this part of the session where I will provide this information to be held in a close manner and only the judge, state accuser and my advocate to participate at this session, Mammadov told.

However, the judge pointed out that Mammadovs request is contrary to the Criminal and Procedural Code of Azerbaijan. According to the Criminal and Procedural Code, event if the court session is held closely, the victims should participate at this session, the judge emphasized. For this reason, Mammadov didnt provide information about A.Ismayilov.
