The Report on Human Rights Violations Committed by the
Armenian Armed Forces during Azerbaijan & Armenia War 31
The consequences of atrocities in Ganja, a densely populated residential area far
from the conflict-affected zone bearing historical importance were perused in-situ;
interviews were arranged with the locals, and the families having lost their kids
were visited in their homes during the working visit. In the first home visited,
the delegation met with the 8-year-old Hüseyin and his elder sister, 16-year-old
Sevil whose mother and father were killed in the attacks. Sevil stated that she
was watching a movie in the night of the attack while her parents were sleeping,
adding that when the attack started, she struggled to reach their room but could
not get hold of her mother and father as the second floor collapsed on them. She
also uttered that her brother still could not perceive what had happened on that
night and that she has been missing her parents and been unable to forget that
night. She also expressed that she wanted to make the dreams of their mother and
father come true and that she was wishing to be an economist by thriving hard. In
the second home visited, the delegation encountered the aunt of a 2-year-old girl
named Nilay who lost her mother, father and grandmother in the attack. The aunt
stated that Nilay’s mother was pregnant and Nilay, who lost her unborn sibling,
was constantly crying and asking for her mother.
The information about the number of civilians injured and overall death toll in
the attacks was obtained from the authorities in addition to the interviews with
the civilians being subject to these attacks. It was found out that among the ones
The Chief Ombudsman Şeref MALKOÇ got together with the children who have
lost their parents in the attacks.
