The Armenian side did not officially inform the Azerbaijani State Commission on Prisoners of War, Hostages and Missing Persons about the transfer of Azerbaijani POW Roman Huseynov to the third country, Secretary of the Commission Shahin Sayilov told Trend on Monday.
Armenia has transferred Huseynov to the third country today, the Armenian agency Mediamax reported.

According to the information, Huseynov was transferred through the representatives of the UN High Commissioner for Refugees and the International Organization for Migration.
In an interview with Trend on Monday, the ICRC Baku Office spokesperson Ilaha Huseynova confirmed Huseynov's transfer to the third party by the Armenian side.

The Office does not have more information on the transfer, since it is not the mandate of the ICRC, said Huseynova, noting that the transfer was made through UN High Commissioner for Refugees.

Sayilov said that three Armenian POWs and five members of one family, who are kept in captivity in Azerbaijan, wish to be transferred to the third country.
