Trial of Artsakh Leaders Continues in Baku

On October 31, the judicial farce against the military-political leadership of Artsakh—presidents Arayik Harutyunyan, Arkadi Ghukasyan, Bako Sahakyan, and other representatives of the republic's authorities—continued in Azerbaijan. This is reported by Azerbaijani sources.

According to Azerbaijani media, the former deputy commander of the Artsakh Defense Army, David Manukyan, stated that he "disagrees with some specific aspects of the crimes attributed to him." The "court" denied his motion. The "judicial investigation" has concluded. The "trial" will continue on November 3.
