“Mitk” Azerbaijani computer hackers sponsored by governmental organizations

YEREVAN, January 22. /ARKA/. Azerbaijani computer hackers are sponsored by governmental organizations which “remove” undesirable mass-media in Azerbaijan and Armenia, announced MITK Analytical Center, whose web site was attacked by hackers.

“MITK, whose activities have been impeded by an Azerbaijani hacker for two days now, has no doubts it is the work of Azerbaijani specialists. MITK AC has identified the criminal who has cracked the site of the organization. His name is Bakhran Akhundov, a resident of Baku, Azerbaijan (deutsche1988, tel: (050) 722 23 33, (012) 418 540, ICQ: 401147536),” is said in the announcement.

According to the organization, since January 20, which is declared a mourning day in Azerbaijan, Armenian internet portals have been attacked by Azerbaijani hackers. In the news, published on Azerbaijani internet sites, it is told with an incomprehensible proud about cracking over a hundred Armenian sites (

However Azerbaijani Minister of Communications and Information Technologies Ali Abbasov, understanding that similar activities will lead Azerbaijan to troubles, hurried to disown criminal activities of his charges.

He stated Azerbaijan has joined the International Convention on Cybercrime.
“Our country meets the Convention. I want to announce cracking of Armenian sites is not the work of Azerbaijan.

It would be good if Armenia searched the reasons somewhere else but not in Azerbaijan,” said Abbasov (http://www.day.az/news/hitech/144469.html).
MITK AC calls all international organizations and interested bodies to assist in stopping hacker attacks on Armenian web portals and sites, as well as to demand to make the guilty answer.

“We are grateful to Armenian IT specialists for refusing from impeding the activities of Azerbaijani mass media. We call them to keep on showing tenacity and to resist provocations of Azerbaijani hackers,” is said in the announcement. --0--
