According to APA Isgandarov blamed the Baku Police Officeâ€™s investigative department in non-objective investigation of the criminal case launched on February 7, 2009 and said the preliminary investigation was finished on February 13. â€œWe, as an aggrieved party, were not allowed to learn the indictment because there were names of some officials, including Lider TVâ€™s presenter and producer Murad Dadashov. According to the facts I have got from the investigative materials, Murad Dadashov and his brother Farid Dadashov organized freelance TV advertising of the GEN Ltdâ€™s construction work. Murad Dadashov illegally received 30 000 USD and his brother Farid â€“ 10 000 USD from the companyâ€™s manager Elbrus Aliyevâ€.

Isgandarov said there were facts in the investigative materials that Elbrus Aliyev gave bribes to the executive authorities of some regions. â€œThey will arrest Elbrus. But who will return money to more than 370 aggrieved people? Why the officials receiving bribe from him donâ€™t defend him now?â€

Isgandarov said they would complain to the European Court of Human Rights against the officials involved in bribery case, TV channels organized illegal advertising of the company, as well as Murad and Farid Dadashovs. He said they addressed the Republican Prosecutorâ€™s Office and Presidential Administration as well.

Murad Dadashov told APA the law-enforcement organizations of the country are investigating the case. He made some points clear: â€œWe were working with GEN Ltd during the broadcasting of Mashin reality-show. We organized their advertisement according to the contract and they were satisfied with our workâ€. Dadashov didnâ€™t make additional comments.

More than 10 persons are accused for GEN Ltd case. The indictment against the people arrested in 2008 for GEN Ltd case, who were charged under article 178.3.2 (swindle with causing damage in the large size) of the Criminal Code, was changed because of their involvement in organized criminal group.
Accused persons â€“ Aliyev Elbrus Bulud, Abbasov Aliyar Ganbar, Agayev Habib Mammadaga, Mammadov Nabi Agarahim, Jafarzadeh Mehpara Mahmoud and Alamov Asif Meyli â€“ face with charges under articles 178.3.1 (swindling by organized group) and 178.3.2 (swindle with causing damage in the large size) of the Criminal Code.
