The man detained by Russian peacekeepers near Shushi on Saturday morning will be handed over to the Artsakh law enforcement agencies in a few hours, Human Rights Ombudsman Gegham Stepanyan said in a Facebook post.
After the incident on the Stepanakert-Berdzor interstate road, the man was taken to the headquarters of the Russian peacekeeping troops for security reasons, the official said.
The ombudsman’s staff will visit the citizen to provide necessary legal assistance to him.
Gegham Stepanyan promised to provide further information later, Panorama.am reports.
