ArmInfo.The General Prosecutor's Office of Armenia is taking actions to prevent Azerbaijan from placing on the international wanted list former and current officials of Armenia and Artsakh.
As reported by the press service of the Prosecutor General's Office, information has recently appeared in the media that Azerbaijan has put on the international wanted list of former Minister of Defense of Armenia Seyran Ohanyan, RA MP Arman Babajanyan, President of Artsakh Arayik Harutyunyan, adviser to President of Artsakh David Babayan, former Minister of Defense of Artsakh Jalal Harutyunyan. Considering the fact that the persecution of these persons is in no way justified, and is a continuation of hostilities and national hatred, the Prosecutor General's Office of Armenia is taking active steps to neutralize this illegal search.
The Prosecutor General's Office appealed to Interpol with the aim of informing about the illegal actions of Azerbaijan, carried out during the unleashed aggressive war against Artsakh and Armenia. And also about the war crimes committed by Azerbaijan against the civilian population.
The Prosecutor General's Office is taking steps to prevent this search through the Interpol General Secretariat. According to the Interpol Rules, organizations are strictly prohibited from interfering in matters of a political, military, racial or religious nature. In 2017, Armenia's cooperation with Interpol already had a positive result, Interpol refused to put Azerbaijan on the wanted list for those who visited Artsakh.
