On January 16 NKR will return Azerbaijani servicemen Eldaniz Nuriev to
the Azeri side. The later had crossed the border on December 31,
2006. Viktor Kocharyyan, Head of the State Commission on Captives of
War and Missing Persons, told `Armenpress’ that the International
Committee of the Red Cross is engaged in the issue of the captive’s
return. Let us remind that Nuriev explained his step with the fact
that he was oppressed in the Azeri Army, and he no more wished to
serve in the Armed Forces of Azerbaijan. Nevertheless, the captive
expressed will to return to Azerbaijan and his return has been
organized with the the agreement of both sides.

It’s worth mentioning that Nuriev was the second Azeri soldier to
cross the Armenian-Azerbaijani border.
