Ueldanov was arrested in early June in Azerbaijan on charges under Article 234.4.3 of the Criminal Code (illegal acquisition, production, storage and distribution of narcotic drugs on a large scale).
“So far, the embassy has received the necessary information from the Azerbaijani authorities,” the embassy said. “The embassy’s official has met with Ueldanov.”
Investigation is currently underway against Ueldanov, according to the Russian Embassy.
“His rights as of the accused one are observed,” the embassy said. “The detainee is indeed an Armenian by nationality. This factor has no impact on the investigation.”
“The embassy hopes Ueldanov’s case will be considered in full compliance with the legislation of Azerbaijan and current Russian-Azerbaijani agreements,” said the embassy.
