    ARMENIAN MEDIA SAYS AZERBAIJANI CAPTIVE APPLIES TO PRESIDENT KOCHARIAN FOR REFUGEE STATUS

    Azeri Press Agency, Azerbaijan
    June 13 2007

    "Armenians have disseminated controversial news on behalf of Samir
    Mammadov, Azerbaijani soldier captivated by Armenian forces recently.

    Now they say Samir wants to stay and Armenia. Some days ago it is said
    that Samir wanted to leave for a third country. It is also said Samir
    died. All these are very ridiculous. Armenians staged attack after
    Armenian captive Valeri Suleimanian applied for staying in Azerbaijan.

    Samir Mammadov's uncle Vidadi Mammadov said while commenting "Arminfo"
    news on Azerbaijani captive's applying for refugee status.

    The Agency disseminated information with reference to Armen Kaprielian,
    head of Working Group of State Committee on prisoners of war and
    missing persons. Armen Kaprielian said Samir Mammadov even requested
    President Robert Kocharian. Azerbaijan representation for ICRC did
    not comment on Samir Mammadov's applying for refugee status.

    Azerbaijani Defense Ministry's press service head Eldar Safarov
    told APA this is the next device circulated by Armenians. "Armenians
    referred to this to distract international organizations' attention
    and mislead Armenian society".

    Samir Mammadov who served in Gazakh military unit was drafted
    from Barda. Samir Mammadov was taken hostage in neutral zone in
    Gazakh-Icevan border on December 24.

    APA reported that Karabakh resident Valeri Suleimanian of Armenian
    descent was taken hostage on the front line. Valeri Suleimanian
    requested to send him to a third country. Valeri Suleimanian said
    all Karabakh Armenians suffer from poverty and suppressions of
    military regime in Karabakh. He added that Armenians living in
    occupied territories try to flee to another territory. Azerbaijan
    National Security Ministry confirmed that Valeri Suleimanian was
    taken hostage on the front line and applied for handing him over to
    a third country.
