    YEREVAN

    Kazakh Foreign Minister Kasymzhomart Tokayev has sent a letter to his
    Armenian counterpart Vardan Oskanyan where he condemns the brutal
    killing of Armenian officer Gurgen Markaryan by an Azerbaijani
    serviceman in Budapest.

    The press service of the Armenian Foreign Ministry told Mediamax news
    agency today that Tokayev says in the letter that "we condemn the
    inhumanity and savageness of this incident and believe that similar
    actions cannot be justified".

    At 0500 [0100] on 19 February, Sr Lt Ramil Safarov of the Azerbaijani
    armed forces, who was attending English language courses as part of
    NATO's Partnership for Peace programme, brutally killed Lt Gurgen
    Markaryan (born in 1978) of the Armenian armed forces while he was
    asleep.
