"I do not accept the thought that PACE co-rapporteurs paid great attention to the problem of political prisoners during their visit to Azerbaijan," Ramiz Mehdiyev the head of President Administration told journalists.

He said that during his meeting with co-rapporteurs they had constructive discussions on definite problems, the European guests gave thorough information about it and the opposite side agreed to it, APA reports.

Ramiz Mehdiyev said that co-rapporteurs wanted them to present the discussed problems in written form and this will allow them to use the information correctly in their accounts. Touching upon the co-rapporteurs' viewpoint of the problem of political prisoners Ramiz Mehdiyev noted that they see no need for special rapporteur. "The process is normally going on. The co-rapporteurs repeated this several times and highly estimated the processes. They are pleased with the work done in Azerbaijan," Ramiz Mehdiyev said.
