Yesterday we sent a detailed report to the UN Human Rights
Council stating that the Azerbaijani authorities are delaying the return of the
captives, and they are grossly violating international mandates and
requirements.
The report was sent to the UN Human Rights Council under a
separate procedure. Only national human rights institutions with international
"A" status have this opportunity.
The report specifically refers to the Azerbaijani authorities
are abuse of legal procedures and politicizing of the issue of the repatriation
of prisoners. By doing so, they are causing mental suffering to our society
and, and foremost, to the families of the captives, and by toying with their
emotions they are causing targeted raising of tensions.
PS. The report has now been submitted, taking into account the
dates and timing of the scheduled sessions of the UN Human Rights Council.
