    Azerbaijan hands over Armenian soldier to third country

    By Sara Rajabova

    Baku has transferred the Armenian serviceman Akop Injigulyan to a
    third country, the head of Azerbaijani Office of International
    Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) told Trend news agency on August 29.

    Ilaha Huseynova, however, didn't clarify to which country Injigulyan
    was handed over.

    The 23-year old Armenian soldier crossed the Azerbaijani territory in
    Agdam region, controlled by the Azerbaijani Army, on the night of
    August 7 to 8.

    Before Injigulyan was handed over to third country, the
    representatives of the ICRC met with him.

    Injigulyan previously applied for transfer to a third country.

    ICRC is also holding negotiations with Armenian and Azerbaijani sides
    on returning the bodies of the members of the Armenian sabotage group
    who attempted to cross Armenian-Azerbaijani contact line in early
    August, and an Azerbaijani citizen killed by Armenian forces in
    mid-July.

    Also, Azerbaijan has appealed to IRCR on return of the two Azerbaijani
    hostages detained by Armenian armed forces in occupied Kalbajar
    region.

    Three Azerbaijani civilians (Russian citizen DilgamAsgarov,
    Azerbaijani citizens ShahbazGuliyev and HasanHasanov) were detained by
    Armenian forces in early July while they were visiting the graves of
    their late relatives. ICRC Baku office earlier reported that
    HasanHasanov was buried in Nagorno-Karabakh after being killed by
    Armenian forces.
