Attending both hearings, legal representative of the Ministers Alirza Habilov said that they dropped the actions taking into account the refutation published by “Azadlig” newspaper.
Court will pass decisions on both processes in the second half of the day.
Interior Minister Ramil Usubov and Minister of Emergency Situations Kamaladdin Heydarov separately filed actions against editor-in-chief of “Azadlig” newspaper, due to the article entitled "Ramil Usubov got angry with Kemaleddin Heydarov” published by “Azadlig” newspaper.
On March 12, “Azadlig” newspaper apologized to Interior Minister Ramil Usubov and Minister of Emergency Situations Kemaleddin Heydarov. The refutation says that the article entitled "Ramil Usubov got angry with Kemaleddin Heydarov” contains inaccurate expressions: “Taking this into account we refute this article and apologize to the readers and the abovementioned officials.”
