Garo Paylan, a Turkish-Armenian lawmaker from the Peoples' Democratic Party (HDP), has said he is filing a criminal complaint against an Azerbaijani woman who said she would behead 20 Armenians if she knew she would not be persecuted.

A Turkish TV conducted a survey, asking passers-by about one thing they would do if they could get away with it. The Azerbaijani woman stopped in the street said she would behead 20 Armenians.

"I am filing a criminal complaint against this person," Paylan wrote on social media as he shared the video on Facebook.
