(Breitbart)—A rapidly escalating diplomatic feud between Russia and Azerbaijan has developed over the death of two Azeri men arrested by Russian police during an organized crime investigation who died in custody under mysterious circumstances. Azerbaijan has accused the Russians of torturing the men to death.
The men who died in Russian custody were brothers named Ziyaddin and Huseyn Safarov. They were taken into custody along with about 50 other Azeris during a raid in Yekaterinburg, Russia, on June 27.
Russian officials said the raid was conducted as part of an investigation into an ethnic organized crime ring – essentially an Azeri mafia – whose crimes included the stabbing death of an Azeri clothier named Yunis Pashayev in 2001.
Pashayev was allegedly killed for refusing to pay protection money to the gang. According to Russian prosecutors, the gang has made several other attempts to murder businessmen who would not comply with its financial demands over the years.
The people detained on June 27 included four suspects who shared the last name Safarov. Ziyaddin and Huseyn were confirmed to be brothers, aged 55 and 60, respectively. Both of them died under enigmatic circumstances.

At Last, a Company With Integrity in the Gold IRA Industry
For several years, I’ve been vetting out precious metals companies in search of the best. I believe in gold and silver but it’s hard to find integrity in the Gold IRA industry. The vast majority operate with shady tactics and gigantic spreads that take advantage of Americans who simply want to protect their life’s savings.
I’ve found a handful that I like and I’ve worked with some of them. By no means would I “unrecommend” them because, again, I vetted them out and found them to be above the fold. Unfortunately, it isn’t hard to be better than the rest when the rest are so darn awful.
After years of searching, I finally found a company that truly operates with integrity. Augusta Precious Metals has three important attributes that set them far above the competition:
- Non-Commissioned Sales Team: I cannot stress how important and unique this is. With just about every other company in the Gold IRA industry, the sales teams make commission from every account they open. This means they steer their clients toward the gold and silver products with the highest commission. With Augusta Precious Metals, the team is solely focused on putting the best gold and silver for their clients into their IRA. They get paid to serve the best interests of the Gold IRA client, NOT their own commission pay.
- Incredibly Low Fees: Most Americans would be shocked if they knew the spread other Gold IRA companies charge. Augusta charges just 5% versus up to 45% elsewhere.
- No Pressure, No Gimmicks: There’s an understanding among most in the Gold IRA industry that fear and pressure is the way to go. Augusta Precious Metals takes a sober approach when working with clients because they hold integrity in the highest possible regard. This is why they don’t offer gimmicks like “free” or “bonus” silver. It’s also why they do not apply pressure tactics to get quick sales. Their educational and transparent approach to doing business is exceedingly rare in the Gold IRA industry.
