Azerbaijan’s ministry of national security dismissed involvement in espionage attempt in Armenia.

The ministry said they do not know the Armenian citizen mentioned in the Armenian NSS report.

As reported earlier, Armenia’s National Security Service (NSS) exposed an attempt of espionage for Azerbaijan.

Former police employee, resident of Yerevan Khachik Martirosyan was detained on January 31 as a result of special operation. Armenian NSS has irrefutable evidence that Martirosyan contacted the embassy of Azerbaijan in Georgia last August. He established contacts with the intelligence personnel working under the auspices of the Azerbaijani embassy and offered them his services to get financial assistance.
