On 27 May 2022, the Attorney General’s Office and the Home Office published information about a serious crime that occurred in the Garadagh district.
According to reports, the body of Khuraman Hasanova with signs of violence was found after extinguishing the fire that occurred on Yunis Mirzayev Street, house 4, apartment 14.
