I am sure there will be actions – Deputy Prime Minister on Azerbaijani murderer’s release

 18:59,

YEREVAN, FEBRUARY 22, ARMENPRESS. During a briefing with journalists on Thursday, Armenian Deputy Prime Minister Mher Grigoryan addressed the news concerning the return of Kamil Zeynalli, the Azerbaijani national wanted by Armenia on suspicion of committing war crimes during the 2020 war, to Baku. 

"I'm sure there will be actions, but for now, I prefer not to elaborate further because, there should also be a collegial discussion regarding the matter," Grigoryan commented on the situation when asked about the return of Zeynalli to Baku and the reception of him as a hero.

When asked what conclusion should be drawn from all this, the Deputy Prime Minister answered: "Let's not get ahead of ourselves. When there will be the official response, then we will talk."

Kamil Zeynalli is suspected of war crimes committed during the 2020 Nagorno-Karabakh war when he fought from the Azeri side against Armenian forces, particularly of killing and beheading an elderly civilian hostage. According to the media reports, Zeynalli is a recipient of Azeri medals for his military service.  According to the reports, the man is now a 'blogger' and a ‘fitness trainer’.
