the area of Gadabay District in the evening of 15 July. The Defence
Ministry has told ANS that a private of special motorized rifle
regiment No 549 of the Armenian Defence Ministry, Karen Harutyunyan,
a Yerevan resident born in 1990, having been unable to bear torture
against him committed by his fellow servicemen, decided to leave his
place of service. He crossed the border and surrendered to Azerbaijani
servicemen.
