YEREVAN. - Azerbaijani saboteurs and murderers Shahbaz Guliyev and Dilham Askerov will probably not be extradited from Karabakh after the court verdict, Armenia’s Minister of Defense Seyran Ohanyan told Armenian News - NEWS.am.

According to Armenian MOD, the Azeri saboteurs had illegally crossed the border and are charged with many severe crimes.

“I think, the answer [concerning their extradition] is not. However, you should ask Karabakh authorities concerning this question,” Minister Ohanyan said.

Note that the prosecutor demanded life sentence Askerov and 22 years of imprisonment for Guliyev.

The court trial over Dilham Askerov and Shahbaz Guliyev - the two members of an Azerbaijani intelligence-gathering sabotage team that had infiltrated into the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic - came to an end early in December at Karabakh capital city Stepanakert seat of the Karabakh First Instance General Jurisdiction Court.

The court verdict on the saboteurs is expected to be announced before the end of the year.

Dilham Askerov is charged with espionage; unauthorized border trespass; kidnapping and violence against a minor, committed by an organized group; murder committed by an organized group motivated by ethnic hatred; and attempt of murder of two persons, committed by an organized group, motivated by ethnic hatred. Shahbaz Guliyev is charged with espionage; unauthorized border trespass; kidnapping and violence against a minor, committed by an organized group; and murder committed by an organized group motivated by ethnic hatred.
