Armenia submits additional evidence to European court over gross Azerbaijani human rights violations
The Armenian government has submitted additional evidence to the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) in connection with the gross human rights violations committed by Azerbaijan's armed forces, ARMENPRESS reports, citing Armenia’s Representation to the ECHR.
The government has expressed readiness to observe the humanitarian ceasefire accord reached between the sides back in October to facilitate the exchange of prisoners of war (POWs) and the bodies of killed soldiers.
Taking into account the threats to POWs' life, the government has asked the Court, as a High Contracting Party to the Convention, to apply the following measures on the Azerbaijani government:
1. Based on conventional obligations, as well as the August 12, 1949 Third and Fourth Geneva Conventions and all applicable rules of the international humanitarian law, to refrain from:
a) Degrading attitude, torture, arbitrary execution, as well as prohibited conduct in relation to POWs and civilians who appear in Azerbaijani captivity;
b) Mutilation of Armenian soldiers' bodies.
2. To provide information on the number and names of POWs, including those currently being held in detention, as well as provide details about their health condition, and evidence of examination by medical personnel.
