Baku / 14.12.20 / Turan: Four servicemen of the Armed Forces of Azerbaijan, suspected of mocking the bodies of the dead Armenian soldiers during the fighting in the Zangelan region and distributing a video of bullying on the network were arrested, the General Prosecutor's Office of Azerbaijan reported on December 14.
Two more Azerbaijani soldiers are suspected of destroying stone slabs on Armenian graves at a cemetery in the Khojavend region.
The General Prosecutor's Office declares, “Committing the above criminal acts by the military personnel of the Republic of Azerbaijan is unacceptable and contradicts the mentality of the Azerbaijani people, historically distinguished by humanism, preferring tolerant, multicultural values.

Based on the collected materials related to this information, the military prosecutor's office filed a lawsuit under the Articles 115.2 (torture, cruel or inhuman treatment of them) and 245 (insulting actions on a grave or over a corpse) of the Criminal Code of the Republic of Azerbaijan, and intensive investigations were carried out in the case.-0-
