(MENAFN- AzerNews) Azerbaijani Ombudswoman Sabina Aliyeva has appealed to the
international community with regard to the cemetery that was found
in the Ergi duzu part of the Aghdam District, Azernews reports per Ombudsman's office.
According to the statement, the discovery of human remains in
the Ergi Dyuzu of the Aghdam region reveals the next traces of war
crimes committed by Armenia during the occupation of Azerbaijani
lands.
"As a result of studies conducted with regards to mass graves
previously encountered in the territories liberated from
occupation, innumerable facts that have been obtained, prove that,
during The First Nagorno-Karabakh War, these remains belong to
Azerbaijanis who were brutally killed by the Armenian armed forces
after being captured or held hostage and subjected to various
tortures. Despite repeated appeals, Armenia neither gives
information about the fate of about 4,000 missing Azerbaijanis, nor
provides the Azerbaijani side with accurate mine maps and maps of
areas with mass burials. Thereby, the Armenian side blatantly
violates commonly accepted norms and principles of international
law. As the Commissioner for Human Rights (Ombudsman) of the
Republic of Azerbaijan, I once again call upon the world community
and international organizations to take a strong stand in
clarifying the fate of about 4,000 Azerbaijanis who went missing
during The First Nagorno-Karabakh War, and transferring accurate
maps of minefields and maps of territories with the location of
mass graves to our country," the statement reads.
