Baku. Shahriyar Alizade – APA. The preliminary investigation into the case of imprisoned Khadija Ismayilova has been completed.
Lawyer Fariz Namazli told APA that the lawyers will familiarize themselves with the files on the criminal case from today.
The Prosecutor General’s Office issued a statement on the arrest of Khadija Ismayilova that the Sabail District Prosecutor’s Office has launched a criminal case under the Criminal Code’s article #125 (bringing to suicide) regarding Tural Mustafayev, a reporter for Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty and Meydan TV Television and Radio Company, making a suicide attempt by swallowing zinc oxide in Seaside Park on October 20.
T. Mustafayev appealed to the General Prosecutor’s Office to ask for measures against Khadija Ismayilova, with whom he had close relationship for a long time, for bringing him to suicide by prosecuting and exerting pressure on him, insulting his honor and dignity throughout the period he worked there.
The investigation also revealed that Mustafayev attempted to commit suicide on 1 May 2014 by hanging himself with buttonhole made by bed-sheet in the apartment which he rented, as Khadija was threatening him. But due to a reason independent on him, he couldn’t fulfill his intention.
Under the decision passed by the Sabail District Court on 5 Dec. 2014, Khadija Ismayilova was sentenced to two-month pre-trial detention. The term was extended several times.
