    ICRC VISITS ARMENIAN SOLDIERS

    Trend

    Azerbaijan

    International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) representatives
    visited six Armenian soldiers held in Azerbaijan.

    "The ICRC has monitored the detention conditions of the soldiers and
    met with them in person," ICRC Azerbaijani Office Spokesman Gulnaz
    Guliyeva told Trend News today.

    The details of the meeting have not been released.

    Three Armenian soldiers - Qrant Markosyan, Arthur Sarkisian and Alik
    Tevosyan - voluntarily surrendered to the Azerbaijani army in the
    Minakhorlu village of the Agjabadi region in late February.

    Ohan Harutunyan Vadinagiyevich and Gevorq Tomosyan Serzhikovich
    crossed the border on the contact line in the Goranboy region May 31
    and Karen Norigovich Harutunyan in the Gadabay region July 15.

    The soldiers complained of unbearable conditions and tortures in the
    Armenian army and crossed over to Azerbaijan for this reason.
