Office of the Ombudsman of Azerbaijan assures: Rights of Armenian  prisoner of war Kazarian are not violated in Azerbaijan

Office of the Ombudsman of Azerbaijan assures: Rights of Armenian  prisoner of war Kazarian are not violated in Azerbaijan

ArmInfo.According to the instructions of the Azerbaijani Commissioner for Human Rights Elmira Suleymanova, members of the National Preventive Ombudsman Group,  which operates under the optional protocol of the Convention against  Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or  Punishment, and the Constitution Act on the Ombudsman, visited  without prior warning Armenian prisoner of war Araik Ghazaryan at the  guardhouse of the Ministry of Defense of Azerbaijan.

According to APA with reference to the Ombudsman's office, the main  purpose of the visit was to familiarize with the conditions of  detention and treatment, as well as to monitor the observance of the  rights of the Armenian military serviceman Ghazaryan, who so far  under unclear circumstances on the morning of August 12, 2019  switched to the Fizuli front line. "During a conversation with  Kazaryan, through an interpreter, he said that he had undergone a  medical examination, his health condition was normal, he was  satisfied with the conditions of detention, treatment and food. Also,  Ghazaryan said that his rights were not violated and he had no  complaints," they assured Office of the Ombudsman of RA.

It should be noted that the press service of the Artsakh Defense Army  distributed a message according to which on August 12, at about  12:00, on the defensive site of one of the military units of the  Autonomous Region, deployed in the southeast direction, the soldier  Araik Aikovich Ghazaryan born in 2000 . Later, the Azerbaijani media  reported with reference to the military department of Azerbaijan that  the soldier is with them. Armenian Minister of Defense David Tonoyan  expressed confidence that the serviceman was on the Azerbaijani side,  as he got lost on the ground.

Meanwhile, the Ministry of Defense of Azerbaijan disseminated  information about the allegedly Armenian soldier leaving his post due  to hazing. Light scratches and ordinary scars on Ghazaryan's body are  presented as evidence of violence against him. However, the NKR  Ministry of Defense denied this information, urging the public not to  believe the false accusations of the Azerbaijani side aimed at  humiliating the image of the Armenian soldier, and to wait for the  ongoing investigation, the results of which will be published.

The Armenian Ombudsman Arman Tatoyan also addressed the incident,  saying that he had talked with the head of the Armenian mission of  the International Committee of the Red Cross, where he was informed  that he had not seen the Armenian soldier in Azerbaijan yet, but  steps were being taken in this direction.  In turn, the Artsakh  Foreign Ministry reported that the mission of the Personal  Representative of the OSCE Chairman-in-Office was informed about the  fact that a soldier of the Artsakh Republic Army Defense Araik  Ghazaryan was captured by the Azerbaijani side. According to the  Foreign Ministry, Artsakh authorities are making efforts to  repatriate prisoner of war Araik Ghazaryan.
