Baku has launched criminal proceedings over the actions of Armenian soldiers during the last year’s war, Azerbaijan’s Deputy Prosecutor Khanlar Valiyev told local media on November 1.
These crimes are being investigated by the Prosecutor-General’s Office and by the State Security Office, the military official said.
A criminal case has also been launched into “incompetence” of some Azerbaijani soldiers during the war, Valiyev said, adding that however, there has been no case of desertion among the Azerbaijani soldiers and officers during the war.
It should be noted that Armenia launched criminal cases back in February against over 10,000 people on charges of desertion during the war, namely for abandoning their combat positions and fleeing the battlefield.
