Member of Parliament Gudrat Hasanguliyev has commented on the discussions surrounding the premeditated murder case in which the name of Ahmad, son of his colleague Arzukhan Alizada, has come up.
Globalinfo.az reports, citing elchi.az, that he said he has known his colleague for many years as an honest person who loves her people.
Emphasizing that parents bear moral responsibility for their children’s actions, Hasanguliyev said that society, friends and the environment a child grows up in also play a serious role in their upbringing:
“Sometimes, for one reason or another, children are more exposed to the influence of the environment they find themselves in. Accusing Ahmad of committing murder without waiting for a statement from law enforcement agencies on the matter is a big mistake.”
Drawing attention to the principle of “excess of the perpetrator” in criminal law, the MP noted that other participants do not bear responsibility for an act committed by one of them that goes beyond the common intent:
“In criminal law there is a concept called ‘excess of the perpetrator.’ If one of the participants in a crime commits an act that goes beyond the common intent, the other participants do not bear responsibility for it. The Ministry of Internal Affairs has talented investigators, and the Prosecutor’s Office has competent investigators. I believe an objective investigation will be carried out into this murder case.”
He said he was confident that the investigation would be conducted objectively and that everyone would be punished according to their degree of involvement.
Citing the decision made regarding Hunter Biden, son of former U.S. President Joe Biden, as an example, Hasanguliyev noted that a strong family means a strong state.
“Society must not be allowed to pressure the investigative authorities simply because Arzukhan Alizada is a member of parliament.”
