Parents of the soldier of Azerbaijani Army Samir Mammadov captured by
Armenian forces wrote a letter to him for the next time, the soldier’s
uncle Vidadi Mammadov told the APA. They will present the letter to
the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC). Vidadi Mammadov
said that his relatives are anxious as they could not get information
about him.

"He was captured four months ago. Samir’s parents are very anxious,"
he said.

Shahin Sayilov, secretary of the State Commission for Prisoners of War,
Hostages and Missing Persons told the APA that all related instances
have been appealed for, and they are expecting for Armenia’s answer.

Representatives of ICRC last visited the captured Azerbaijani soldier
on March 21.
