Ilham Aliyev of Azerbaijan lost both in “gambling” and in politics,
Iranian news site “arannews.ir” said.

“Ilham Aliyev has not been a politician. He was more famous in
“gambling”. During Heydar Aliyev’s presidency in 1996 Ilham lost a
large sum in a casino in Istanbul, he was taken as a hostage, which
made his father to send a delegation to free his son,” the report said.

The Iranian media writes if in 1996 Aliyev was gamblers’ hostage,
now he is a hostage of Israel’s policy. “Who will free Ilham Aliyev
from Israel hostage this time?”
