June 20, 2013 | 02:11
YEREVAN. - The information about a large number of "captured" and
"hostages" does not correspond to reality.
Armen Kaprielyan, head of the working group of the Armenian State
Commission on Prisoners of War, Hostages and Missing Persons, told
the aforesaid to Armenian News-NEWS.am, commenting on the data which
the Azerbaijani state commission had issued.
In line with this data, there are allegedly 4,033 Azerbaijani prisoners
of war, missing persons, and hostages.
"The information is false; it does not correspond to reality; it is
not confirmed by any factual data," Kaprielyan stressed.
He recalled that there is solely one captive in Armenia today. He is
Azerbaijani military serviceman Firuz Farajayev, who had crossed into
the Armenian side last July.
"The [Azerbaijani state commission's] figures are absurd. They, too,
realize that the differences [in these numbers] give a reason to
believe that the Azerbaijani commission is issuing unverified data,"
Armen Kaprielyan concluded.
