Levon Melik-Shahnazaryan: Azeri special forces attempted on my life
/PanARMENIAN.Net/ “I want to tell Azerbaijan’s President Ilham Aliyev that I am alive and I will continue my activity. Aliyev sponsors international terrorism and if I die he will be the only man to blame for it,” Armenian expert and political scientist Levon Melik-Shahnazaryan told a news conference in Yerevan.
“The Azeri special forces, who attempted on my life, had been instructed or at least encouraged by Ilham Aliyev,” he said.
On April 22, a bullet hit the iron-barred window of the expert’s house in Ptghni settlement not far from Yerevan. “The man detained by Armenian law enforces is not a citizen of Armenia. His testimony proved my suspicions that the order was received from Azerbaijan,” Melik-Shahnazaryan said.
The Armenian expert doesn’t rule out that Azeri special forces will hunt after Armenian political scientists and prominent journalists.
“Azerbaijan launched a new stage of “struggle” against Armenia. It took up the Israeli scheme, according to which any enemy of Israel should be killed, no matter where he lives. They threatened me and my family if I don’t stop my activities,” he said, adding that upon completion of the investigation he will bring a suit against Aliyev to the European Court of Human Rights.
Earlier, Baku just sponsored international terrorism, now it acts independently. Bin Laden’s fellow fighter, who detained in Germany, testified that al-Qaeda leader visited Baku 86 times during past 10 years. We should not forget about hundreds of Afghan mujahids who fought against Armenians in Karabakh. Furthermore, all drivers of Iranian trucks entering Armenia are Azeris by origin and have Azeri passports. It’s quite possible that besides their direct job, they act as scouts,” Melik-Shahnazaryan emphasized.
