YEREVAN. – The trial of the case into Azerbaijani Turgay Mikhailov, who had illegally crossed the Georgian-Armenian border, will get underway on November 2, at the Lori District Court of First Instance of Armenia.

Armenian News-NEWS.am has learned the aforesaid from the judicial information system.

According to the indictment, on July 23 at around 9pm, Mikhailov had bypassed Armenia’s state border crossings at the country’s border with Georgia—and without the necessary documents—, and illegally entered Armenia on foot.

A criminal case is brought against the 35-year-old Azerbaijani, and on charges of illegally crossing the Armenian border. This offense is punishable by a fine, or imprisonment.

Turgay Mikhailov is under arrest.

But Azerbaijani websites claim that even though Mikhailov is an Azerbaijani, he is a citizen of Georgia.
