26 members of the gang stand trial presided by Judge Ali Seyfaliyev.
Rustem Ibadov, the case witness gave testimony on the investigation of defendant Mehman Hasanovâ€™s car. He said that white substance was found in the right-pocket of the car during the investigation.
â€œNSM officer who I did not know called me and said that I will be the witness of the case. The investigation was conducted by the inspector. White substance wrapped in transparent cellophane was found in the right pocket of the car. I saw the substance personally. I did not have any information about the substance and its weight,â€? he said.
After witnessâ€™s testimony Haji Mammadov said that the substance belonged to him.
â€œI used Mehmanâ€™s car for several times. Once, Mehman brought his car to the car-wash station near Garabulag office. I was called; as I could not find my driver Rovshen Agayev I took his car. I was under influence of drug and do not remember what I did, but I confess putting the substance there and I forget to take it. I confess that I am guilty and will give needed information during further testimonies,â€? Mammadov said.
Mammadov also said that Hasanov is not the member of his group.
â€œIt is not right to keep Mehman here; he is not the member of my group. He is not suitable man for my group. If he was the needed person, I would involve him to my group after Yalukhan Iluyevâ€™s case. He was only my friend,â€? Mammadov said.
Hasanov denied that drug belongs to Haji Mammadov and said he is unaware Mammadovâ€™s using the drugs.
Afterwards Shahin Pashayev, Gazenfer Pashayevâ€™s nephew gave testimony on the episode of attack on the car.
â€œIt happened in 1998. I was taking $200 000 belonging to the company to Lokbatan. On the way the upcoming car stopped me, I was demanded to give the keys of the boot. They could not open the boot, so did not take the money,â€? he said.
Then Vagif Mammadov, the witness gave testimony on the episode of search at Hasanovâ€™s house and said that two boxes of cartridge and drugs were found.
The trial will continue in the second half of the day. /APA
