Rahman Hasanov, father of Armenian-captured Azerbaijani soldier Rafig
Hasanov has not heard of his son since July 27.

Rahman Hasanov said the International Committee of the Red Cross
(ICRC) visited Rafig Hasanov and monitored his detention conditions
on July 23.

The captive’s letter was delivered to his family on July 27. Since
then, Rahman Hasanov has not received information about his son.

"Before we received Rafig’s letter, Baku office of the International
Committee of the Red Cross told me that he felt bad. Later, I received
his letter. Maybe they have killed him. I demand accurate information
about my son," he said.

Hasanov said the local bodies showed indifference to the captivity
of his son.

"Neither the military commissariat nor Aghdam region executive power
concerned itself with us. I sent my son safe and sound and now i want
him back him safe and sound," he said.

Rafig Hasanov, 20, was captured on the contact line in Gazakh on
Oct. 8, 2008.
