YEREVAN. – The “Against Legal Arbitrariness” NGO expects official results of the forensic examination of Mamikon Khojoyan to apply to the European Court of Human Rights.

Technical issues are being solved to draw the necessary documents, head of the NGO Larisa Alaverdyan told reporters.

As reported earlier, the examination revealed that Armenian captive was injected petroleum products and psychotropic substances.

“It was confirmed that the old man had been tortured,” Alaverdyan said.

The first Ombudsman recalled that the Armenian side had appealed to the Azerbaijani authorities to investigate the facts of torture against Khojoyan. There is still no answer, and the experience of previous years shows there hardly would be any.

According to Larisa Alaverdyan, it would be right to collect similar torture cases of Armenians in Azerbaijani captivity, and to submit to the ECHR with a single package.

Mamikon Khojoyan, 77, a resident of Verin Karmiraghbyur village of Armenia’s Tavush Region, was taken captive by Azerbaijan on January 28. He suffered from mental illness.

Azerbaijan returned the elderly to Armenia on March 4, and he died on May 20.
