According to the information, the Prosecutor General’s Office of the Republic of Azerbaijan granted the requests of the Prosecutor General’s Office of the Republic of Uzbekistan for the extradition of Uzbek citizens, Raxmatullo Nomancanovich Mirzaalimov, born in 1981, and Azamatcon Abduqapparovich Toxtasinov, born in 1976, in order to bring them to criminal responsibility.
