STEPANAKERT. – On November 30, the representatives  of International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) Delegation in Baku, the capital city of Azerbaijan, visited Armenian POW Arsen Baghdasaryan, and provided him with an opportunity to exchange family news.

In response to a query by Armenian News-NEWS.am, communication officer of the ICRC Mission in Nagorno-Karabakh, Eteri Musayelyan, informed that the visit was conducted in line with the standard ICRC procedures.

“According to its mandate, the ICRC visits detainees to monitor their treatment and conditions of detention and help to ensure that they are able to maintain contact with their families,” added Musayelyan.

Nagorno-Karabakh Republic (NKR/Artsakh) citizen Arsen Baghdasaryan was taken into Azerbaijani captivity on December 26, 2014. And within the framework of a hastily concocted case, he was charged with “sabotage” and sentenced to 15 years in a maximum security prison.
