  Arrest period for Armenian separatists extended - Azerbaijani Prosecutor General

The arrest period for Arayik Harutyunyan and other Armenian separatists held in Baku has been extended, AzVision.az reports citing the statement from the Prosecutor General's Office of Azerbaijan.

The Binagadi District Court reviewed requests from the Investigation Department of the Prosecutor General's Office and the Prosecutor General of the Republic of Azerbaijan to extend preventive measures against the former so-called "presidents" of the separatist regime in Karabakh, Arkady Ghukasyan, Bako Sahakyan, Arayik Harutyunyan, former so-called "Minister of Foreign Affairs" David Babayan, former so-called "Chairman of Parliament" Davit Ishkhanyan, General David Manukyan, and others.

The criminal case is being investigated by a joint investigative group comprising professionals from the Prosecutor General's Office, Military Prosecutor's Office, State Security Service, Ministry of Internal Affairs, and other investigative bodies. A total of 14 members of the separatist regime are facing charges under various articles of the Criminal Code of Azerbaijan.

The court's decision has resulted in the continuation of detention for these individuals.

To note, after the local anti-terrorist measures carried out last year, the law enforcement agencies of Azerbaijan detained the former so-called "presidents" of the illegal separatist regime, Arkadi Ghukasyan, Bako Sahakyan, Arayik Harutyunyan, former so-called "Foreign Minister" David Babayan, as well as former so-called "chairman of Parliament" Davit Ishkhanyan, Generals Lev Mnatsakanyan, David Manukyan, and former so-called "Minister of State" Ruben Vardanyan.
