Quotes

  • "Article 18 of the constitution says that religion is separated from state and all the religions are equal under the law. Freedom of speech and freedom of expression has been trampled on here in this court. They are forcing me to turn away from my own beliefs. Dear judge, this is unconstitutional." -- Rafik Tagi, speaking to the court after the verdict
  • "There are no offensive words addressed to the Prophet. ... On the other hand, we do not live in a religious state." -- Writer Rafik Tagi, quoted on Azeri Web site Day
  • "If he had been an unbeliever (Kafir), he is considered as someone who has insulted the Prophet and in any case, given his confessions, it is necessary for every individual who has an access to him to kill him. The person in charge of the said newspaper, who published such thoughts and beliefs consciously and knowingly, should be dealt with in the same manner." -- Grand Ayatollah Sheikh Muhammad Fazel Lankarani
  • "A person can't be condemned for their opinions." -- Senet editor Samir Sadagatoglu
