Armenian Defence Ministry The Armenian Defence Ministry has denied
that Azerbaijani forces detained a reconnaissance agent at the front
line on 11 September.
The Azerbaijani Defence Ministry told News.Az that an Armenian
reconnaissance group had crossed the northern section of the contact
line separating Armenian and Azerbaijani forces on 11 September and one
member of the group had been taken prisoner by the Azerbaijani side.
This information is not true, Public Radio of Armenia reported the
Armenian Defence Ministry as saying today.
This is recurrent misinformation by the Azerbaijani side, the Armenian
Defence Ministry said.
"This misinformation proves once again that, true to their working
style, the Azerbaijani authorities are continuing to destabilize the
situation in the region by disseminating false information, creating
a false opinion among the international community and ignoring
the efforts of the OSCE Minsk Group to settle the Nagorno Karabakh
conflict," the Armenian ministry said in a statement.
The Azerbaijani Defence Ministry has named the detained reconnaissance
agent as Manvel Mamikonovich Saribekyan.
Saribekyan said during his first interrogation that the group had been
trained and sent to the Azerbaijani side by the Armenian intelligence
services.
