Today in the morning Hakob Injighulyan, who was moved to the third country from captivity in Azerbaijan, returned to the homeland. Hakob Injighulyan was greeted by his relives and huge crowd of people at Zvartnots airport.
“I have still 9 months to serve in the army and I am going to do it,”- said Injighulyan, once more confirming that he appeared in captivity, as he was lost.
Injighulyan stressed that violence was carried out toward him in Azerbaijan. He was beaten and cursed. “They said if I didn’t do what they say I would appear in the same situation as that shepherd. I was threatened with shooting. I also gave interviews under the pressure of Azerbaijanis. Before the interviews I was called and told what to say and if not they would kill me.
Also before the meeting with Red Cross I was called and given instructions, they read the letters of my family,”- he said.
The Armenian captive was forced to leave for the third country or else he would be killed. “They forced me to leave for the third country. They said if I tried to run away or wished to return to Armenia, they would shoot me. So I went to the third country and returned to Armenia,”- he said.
