ArmInfo.There are 17 Armenian prisoners of war on the Azerbaijani side. Rafael Vardanyan, the head of the criminal-legal department of the IC, stated this during a press conference.
He noted that the data concerning two more civilians are also being checked. "The Armenian side actively cooperates on these issues with the European Court of Human Rights. Armenia has submitted applications for measures to ensure the life and health of war prisoners. As you know, some applications have already been satisfied, others are being considered," Vardanyan stressed. He noted that there are two Azerbaijani prisoners of war in the Armenian side.
"The prisoners of war were interrogated. One of them said during the interrogation that he would hardly have been well cared for in Azerbaijan. The prisoners of war are kept in conditions in compliance with all the norms of international law. They were provided with medical assistance and also are provided sufficient food three times a day," Vardanyan emphasized.
