    Today RA Ombudsman Larissa Alaverdyan has sent a letter to Elmira
    Suleymanova, the Azerbaijani Human rights defender, the Red Cross
    International Committee, and the Armenian, Azerbaijani and Stepanakert
    delegations of the Committee.

    It is particularly mentioned in the letter that according to the
    information spread by the International working group about the
    issues of war prisoners Zohrab Tamayan who was in military service
    in Noyemberyan has been taken captive my the Armenian armed forces.

    The Azerbaijani Ministry of Defense has not confirmed the information,
    whereas the Azerbaijani independent experts have, and according to
    the Azerbaijani press the soldier has been take captive by the order
    of the Azerbaijani Defense Ministry.

    The Armenian Ombudsman has expressed his worriedness by the fate of
    the soldier especially taking into account the fact that the captive
    is representative of a national minority. It is well known that the
    Azerbaijanis treat the Kurd captives with special cruelty. ~SWe
    have already had terrible experience ~V a Yezidi young men - an
    ex-prisoner of war who returned from Azerbaijan, committed suicide~T,
    says the latter.

    The RA Defender of human rights asked the above mentioned organization
    to wake the case into control securing the defense of Tamayan~Rs
    rights and the meeting of Geneva convention commitments.

    ~SI think that cooperation in the settlement of humanitarian problems
    will allow us to reduce e tension and will contribute to the peaceful
    settlement of the Karabakh conflict for the sake of stability and
    regional security~T, mentioned Larissa Alaverdyan.
