ArmInfo.From December 19, 2022 to the present, 101 written applications have been submitted to the commission on issues of prisoners of war, hostages and missing persons for information on legal, medical and social issues of the circumstances of their disappearance. This is stated in the message of the National Security Service of the Republic of Armenia.
Emphasizing the need for legal regulation of relations with prisoners, hostages and missing persons, the Chairman of the Commission instructed the Ministry of Justice of the Republic of Armenia to develop a draft concept of the law on prisoners, hostages and missing (location unknown) persons, and the Ministry of Labor and Social Affairs of the Republic of Armenia to assess the needs of the families of the hostages and the missing.
The department also assured that director of the National Security Service, Major General Armen Abazyan, continues to meet regularly with the parents and relatives of the missing. persons
As a result of the 44-day war and post-war, the bodies of 422 dead Armenian servicemen were returned to the Republic of Armenia, of which 225 were killed during an enemy attack in September 2022, the work to evacuate the bodies of 2 Armenian servicemen who died as a result of the September attack continues.
It should be noted that the exact number of Armenian prisoners of war held in Baku after the 44-day large- scale military aggression against Nagorno-Karabakh is still not known. The authorities of the Azerbaijan Republic confirm that they have about three dozen Armenian prisoners of war. The human rights defender reports that there are several hundred prisoners of war in Azerbaijan. Many of them were illegally sentenced to long-term imprisonment by Azerbaijani courts on far-reaching articles. It is known that Armenian prisoners of war are subjected to harsh treatment in captivity, and all this is happening against the backdrop of the silence of the international community, which has double standards on the issue of humanism.
