Khanlar Veliyev Representatives of International Committee of Red Cross
have been invited to medical expertise of body of Armenian serviceman,
who committed suicide.
Trend reports that the statement came Saturday from Azerbaijan's
military prosecutor Khanlar Veliyev.
"As soon as the military prosecutor's office received the information
about the suicide of the serviceman, the Baku office of the ICRC was
informed about the incident and the representatives of the structure
were invited to the expertise", the military prosecutor said.
Manvel Saribekyan, detained by the armed forces of Azerbaijan,
committed suicide in early October.
The Armenian leadership and Armenian press accused the Azerbaijani
side of Saribekyan's death.
Armenian FM Edward Nalbandian announced that the serviceman was
allegedly killed, according to Novosti-Armenia.
Azerbaijan's military prosecutor called the accusations of the opposite
side unfounded.
"If we had something to hide, we would not have invited the ICRC
representatives for the expertise. They asked for the official evidence
of the death and we have presented it", Veliyev said.
As for the military prosecutor, Saribekyan hanged himself in the
temporary isolation ward.
According to the prosecutor, no traces of violence were revealed on
the body. The investigation is currently underway.
