“I have a very excellent relationship with him,” TASS quotes him.

At the same time, he expressed his readiness to help Efremov.

“Until the last day, while Efremov is free, I will always be there, help, ask - I will always go and help,” he said.

On September 9, the POC reported that Efremov told human rights defenders about the refusal of Pashayev's services and the search for a new lawyer.

The lawyer himself then called these messages stupidity.

Later, the media wrote that Efremov said that Pashayev "set him up".
