Press Office of the Caucasus Muslims Office released an official
statement in connection with the information about visit of Catholicos
of Armenians Garegin II to the Alley of Martyrs in Baku.

Mistaken view of visit of Karekin II to Alley of Martyrs was formed
in connection with the fact that one of the officers who accompanied
the Armenian Catholicos during his visits to various places of Baku
gave out inaccurate information to the Catholicos.

After the information was studied, it turned out Karekin II and his
companions did not visit the Alley of Martyrs.

Mother See of Holy Echmiadzin of Armenia denies information about
visit of Catholicos of All Armenians Karekin II to the Alley of
Martyrs in Baku.

Head of the Caucasus Muslims Office Haji Allahshukur Pashazade said
earlier in his interview with ANS that he advised Karekin II to look
at shahids who died for Karabakh and "see the graves of our sons".

"They went there together at night when nobody was there. Karekin II
was deeply touched by what he saw there," Pashazade said.

In this connection, Mother See of Holy Echmiadzin has appealed to the
Caucasus Muslims Office to disclaim the information. Garegin II was
in Baku to attend the World Summit of Religious Leaders on April 26.
