Armenian soldier Karen Harutyuyan who crossed border to Azerbaijan
has been taken to Baku.
The soldier crossed Azerbaijani border in Gadabay region on July 15
because of torture in the Armenian army.
19-year-old Yerevan resident Karen Harutyuyan said he did not endure
torture and humility that he faced for not paying bribe.
So, he decided to leave the military unit he was serving and surrender
to Azerbaijani soldiers.
"The situation in Armenia is very bad at the moment. People live
in poverty. People do not want to leave under leadership of current
leaders Serzh Sargsyan and Seyran Oganyan.
"Every day there are demonstrations against authorities in Yerevan. I
do not want to be representative and soldier of this country. I reject
Armenian citizenship. I ask Azerbaijani officials to hand me over to
a third country," he said.
