    NO BANNERS PROMOTING AZERBAIJANI VERSION OF AGHDAM EVENTS DETECTED ON TIMES SQUARE

    20:51 24/02/2014 " REGION

    Azerbaijani media actively disseminate information that allegedly
    the monitors installed in the center of Times Square in New York City
    demonstrate graphics, for already several days, promoting Azerbaijani
    version of Aghdam events taken place in 1992.

    "Unlike the last year, this year every two minutes a video lasting
    30 seconds appears on two large screens in the Times Square," the
    statement reads.

    In this regard, a reader turned to Panorama.am editorial office,
    and provided a video footagewhich clearly showed that on February 22,
    in 2014 there have been no graphics, posters or banners detected on
    the Times Square concerning the Aghdam events. The video that lasts
    for more than two minutes shows advertisements changing one after
    another and there is no Azerbaijani video shown there.

    The movie telling about Aghdam events was not detected also on the
    23rd of February.

    On February 26, 1992, during the war in Karabakh, around 200 to
    300 people (according to Human Right Watch, and 600 according to the
    version propagated by Azerbaijan) were killed in unknown circumstances
    near the city of Aghdam. They have been deliberately withheld by the
    Azerbaijani authorities in the midst of the military actions.

    Population of the village of Khojalu, which was one of the firing
    points shooting at the blockaded Stepanakert (among five others)
    was kept in the village for months by force and was not evacuated by
    the authorities of Azerbaijan deliberately, in order to use them as
    human shields later.

    Residents of Khojalu coming out through the humanitarian corridor,
    that the self-defense forces of NKR had left open, freely passed more
    than 10 km and reached the Aghdam city controlled by the Azerbaijani
    troops. Later, not far from the positions of Azerbaijani troops dead
    bodies of the villagers were found. The exact death toll remains
    unknown as the official Baku publishes data contradicting each other.

    Parliamentary Commission investigating the tragic death of the
    civilians at Aghdam city was dissolved by the order of Heydar Aliyev,
    the investigative materials are kept secret.
