The European Court of Human Rights requested documented information from the Government of Azerbaijan on the fact of their detention, their location, conditions of detention and medical care. The court set December 7, 9, 10,11 and 14 as deadlines for providing the required information.

In addition, the lawyers say, the Government of Azerbaijan, in response to the questions raised by the European Court in previous cases, gave a resounding, evasive, incomplete answer. In particular, it did not substantially answer where and under what conditions the Armenian prisoners of war are kept, did not submit any proof of medical examination, stating that the information will be provided in the near future.
