David Tonoyan: Azerbaijani authorities have not yet allowed  representatives of the ICRC to meet with captured Armenian citizen

ArmInfo. A citizen of Armenia, Karen Ghazaryan, who has recently been taken captive by  the Azerbaijani side, is not a military man, as Baku tries to present, he is a civilian and all relevant documents have been transferred to the  International Committee of the Red Cross and Minsk Group Co-Chairs,  Armenian Defense Minister David Tonoyan told journalists. 

According to him, Ghazaryan's relatives have already appealed to the  European Court of Human Rights. " We work in three directions," the  Minister said, noting that the Azerbaijani authorities have not yet  allowed the representatives of the ICRC to meet with Ghazaryan. "But  I am in constant contact with the ICRC in order to somehow accelerate  this meeting," the Minister concluded.

Speaking about the situation on the border, Tonoyan said that it is  stable at the moment.  A resident of Berdavan, Karen Ghazaryan, born  in 1984, was taken in Azerbaijani captivity on July 15.  According to  the head of the village, Ghazaryan, who had health problems, lost his  way at night.  Meanwhile, the Azerbaijani Ministry of Defense in this  regard stated about "preventing the sally of the sabotage and  reconnaissance group of the Armenian Armed Forces on the border." The  incident, allegedly, occurred in the direction of the Gazakh region.  The Azerbaijani Defense Ministry reported about capture of an  Armenian serviceman, Karen Kazaryan, born in 1984.
