    DEFENSE MINISTRY: INJUGHULYAN NOT TO BE SUBJECT TO CRIMINAL PROSECUTION

    The ICRC is asked to pass to the Armenian soldier captured in
    Azerbaijan that upon his return home he can fully enjoy his rights,
    the Defense Ministry spokesman Artsrun Hovhannisian wrote on his
    Facebook page.

    "The Republic of Armenia always complies with its international
    commitments. In particular, the Constitution of the Republic of
    Armenia restates the full scope of rights and freedoms enshrined
    in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) adopted on 10
    December 1948.

    Article 13 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights constitutes
    that everyone has the right to freedom of movement and residence
    within the borders of each state and further, everyone has the right
    to leave any country, including his own, and to return to his country.

    Article 25 of the Constitution of the Republic of Armenia states that
    everyone legally residing in the Republic of Armenia has the right
    to freedom of movement and choice of residence in the territory of
    the Republic Armenia, everyone has a right to leave the Republic of
    Armenia and that every citizen and everyone legally residing in the
    Republic of Armenia has the right to return to the Republic of Armenia.

    The Armenian side has reiterated its pledge for several times that
    Hakob Injighulyan who lost his bearings on the terrain on the night
    of August 8th, inadvertently crossed the Line of Contact and was
    subsequently found in the area of protection of Azerbaijani troops
    and captured by the latter, will not be subject to any criminal
    prosecution.

    The ICRC is asked to pass to the Armenian soldier captured in
    Azerbaijan that upon his return home he can fully enjoy his rights
    by continuing his residency in Armenia or moving into the 2nd, 3rd
    or even 4th country," Artsrun Hovhannisian wrote.
