THE ARMENIAN SIDE DENIES THE FACT OF CAPTURING AN AZERBAIJAN SOLDIER

The information about capturing Azerbaijan soldier, Ramil
Khudaverdyev, was officially proved by the Yerevan branch of Red
Cross International Committee (RCIC). The corresponding information
was sent to the Baku office of RCIC. At the same time, the letter of
Khudaverdyev himself was sent to Baku. That is why, the ascertaining
of Armenian defense ministry representative, Seyran Shakhsuvaryan,
about the fact that Armenians did not capture Khudaverdyev is
disinformation. That was declared by secretary of the State Committee
in charge of prisoners of war, hostages and lost, Shain Sailov,
commenting on today’s declaration of Shakhsuvaryan to ARMINFO agency.
We shall remind you that ensign Ramil Khudaverdyev vanished on the
front line on August 3, of this year.
