Mollazade calls for international tribunal on Khojaly

Asim Mollazade, chairman of the Democratic Reforms Party, has said Azerbaijan should appeal to the UN to set up an international tribunal to investigate the mass killings of civilians in the town of Khojaly in 1992.

“It is important to ensure that (the massacre) is investigated by an international body,” Mollazade said in parliament today. “Similar bodies have investigated the killings in Rwanda and Srebrenitsa." 

Mollazade said Baku should bring the case up to Interpol to arrest those involved in the massacres. 

Armenian forces captured Khojaly on the night of February 25-26, killing 613 people, most of them women, children and elderly.
