Zerkalo Azeri newspaper has released а statement by the mother of Azeri soldier Irada Mamedova.

According to Ms. Mamedova’s report, the dead body of her son who was claimed to have committed a suicide was brought to her by a civilian who demanded to bury him at once.

Having learnt the news on trafficking of organs removed from dead soldier, Ms. Mamedova demanded to exhume the remains of her son.

As it was discovered during an autopsy, Ismail’s heart and liver were removed from the dead soldier’s body.

“Further, the investigator was trying to persuade me that Ismail’s missing organs simply decayed.”

“My son’s military unit commandment offered to pay me not to speak at news conference, which I didn’t agree to,” the grief-stricken mother said.

Dead soldiers’ organ trafficking scandal broke out in early August, when Azeri media released a statement by a soldier’s mother, suggesting the organs of her son and his 7 co-servicemen were sold abroad.

Later, an open letter of Toulouse-based former Azeri serviceman was published, where Ragim Namazov revealed that Azeri military units in Nakhichevan are engaged in the sale of soldier’s internal organs.
