'A TRAP WAS PREPARED FOR MUTALIBOV IN KHOJALU'
Rahim Ghaziev, one of the former Azeri defense ministers jailed for 10 years on charge of state treason. Particularly, he was accused of leaving Shushi to Armenians. He was released only two months ago. Ghaziev said in the interview to www.realazer.com that a trap was prepared for Mutalibov in Khojalu to remove him.
Ghaziev said that he received information about the attack of the Armenian forces against Khojalu on February 16, 1992. "On February 25, I again received information about the preparations of the attack," Ghaziev said. He added that the Azeri Armed Forces had enough arms to help the Khojalu people and stop the Armenians. Those days, the Azeri defense minister said that it was possible to avert the disaster and keep their positions.
The journalist that recently visited Nagorno Karabakh, asked Ghaziev the following question, "They showed me the humanitarian corridor provided by the Armenians in Askeran that was used by the majority of the people living there. The corridor stretches along the Karkar River. Is it true and whether the activists of the People’s Front misled the Khojalu people?"
"I also heard about that and about other awful things that our people did. But you should understand that I was blamed so much that now I am afraid to be condemned again. Eldar Baghirov, an activist of People’s Front in Aghdam told me of the instructions that he received from the leaders of the People’s Front. He began telling but soon he stopped. He was about to lose his mind when he was telling about the treason of the soldiers of the People’s Front," Ghaziev said.
The journalist said that when he was in Shushi, the Armenians showed him the restored church, adding that it was filled with ammunition when they arrived in the city. Ghaziev said that there were about 12 thousand shells. "I swear to God that I didn’t receive a single gun from the state. The whole ammunition was gathered by volunteers. And they left all that in Shushi," Ghaziev said. There were 4 tanks, 9 armored vehicles, 2 Grad mounts and 20 mortars. "Most of this ammunition was not used during the defense of the city," the former Azeri defense minister said.
