Murder of Rasim Aliyev
In 2015, when Gabala won a qualifier to the Europa League against the Greek-Cypriot team Apollon Limassol, Huseynov raised the Turkish flag, which was a provocative gesture towards the Greek-Cypriotic fans and made an obscene gesture at a journalist who questioned the act.[14][15] An Azerbajaini journalist, Rasim Aliyev, reported on the incident and harshly criticized Huseynov as “ignorant and unable to behave himself”.[16][17] Aliyev was subsequently murdered. On 31 May 2016, the court found him Huseynov guilty of accessory to the murder after the fact and not reporting a crime and sentenced to four years of imprisonment.[18]
