The body of Azeri saboteur Hasan Hasanov killed in summer 2014 during an attempt to infiltrate the territory of Karabakh was handed over to Azerbaijani side, the NKR State Commission for Prisoners of War, Hostages and Missing People reported.

Earlier, Stepanakert voiced readiness for unilateral handover of Hasanov’s body in observance of the norms of Geneva Conventions.

Hasanov was killed during an NKR operation to thwart Azeri diversion on July 11, after the saboteur shot Yerevan resident Sargis Abrahamyan and injured a resident of the village of Dzoraghbyur Karine Davtyan on the Vardenis-Karvachar road.
