hytga Posted September 27, 2004 Report Share Posted September 27, 2004 AZERBAIJAN ANGRY THAT ZORY BALAYAN WAS NOT ARRESTED BY TURKISH AUTHORITIES BAKU, SEPTEMBER 27, ARMENPRESS: A Baku-based Ekho daily regretted that Zory Balayan, a prominent Armenian publicist, was not detained by Turkish border guards on Turkish-Syrian border , when entering Turkey from Syria to meet with residents of an Armenian village in Turkey. "Taking into consideration that the well-known Armenian "terrorist" is outside Armenia (Balayan is on board of a ship, replicated from medieval Armenian merchant vessels, sailing to Europe-Armenpress) Azeri authorities intend to start a sweeping manhunt after him," the daily writes. To remind, Azerbaijan had asked Interpol to arrest Balayan, whom it accuses of masterminding a series of terrorist acts in Azerbaijan, but Interpol has dropped the case. Z. Orduj, an Azeri parliament member, was quoted by the daily as saying that he was going to ask the government at a regular parliament session to request that Balayan be arrested and extradited by the authorities of those countries which the vessel crew is pass through. "Balayan regularly comes up with threats against Turkey and the Turkish authorities should treat him just like Abdullah Ocalan," the Azeri deputy stated. http://armenpress.am/eng/news/polit.htm just when i thought these guys couldn't get any more irrational they prooved me wrong. ha ha. these guys crack me up. loooooool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
