ICRC representatives visit Dilgam Asgarov, Shahbaz Guliyev
Representatives of the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) have visited the Azerbaijanis taken hostage by Armenians in Kalbajar.

The visit took place on June 28, spokesperson for the ICRC Baku Office Ilaha Huseynova told APA.

ICRC representatives informed the Azerbaijanis, who are being held in Nagorno-Karabakh, about their families and obtained information from them for their families.

Visiting the hostages, the ICRC aims to monitor their detention conditions and treatment towards them, and help them stay in touch with their families, Huseynova said.

Note that, in July of this year, Russian citizen Dilgam Asgarov and Azerbaijani citizen Shahbaz Guliyev were taken hostage and another Azerbaijani citizen Hasan Hasanov was shot to death by the Armenian servicemen while trying to visit their homeland in Kalbajar.

Hasan Hasanov’s body was taken from the enemy and buried in Baku.

On December 19, 2014, the “court” of the separatist regime in occupied Nagorno-Karabakh sentenced Dilgam Asgarov to life in prison, Shahbaz Guliyev to 22 years in prison.
