Azerbaijanis living near the Armenian border recorded a brief video of an Armenian man who had wandered into their village on August 7. The villagers told RFE/RL's Azerbaijani Service that they called the military, who came and detained the unarmed man, identified as 31-year-old Karen Petrosyan. One day later, Azerbaijani authorities announced that Petrosyan had died of heart failure while in detention. (RFE/RL's Azerbaijani Service)
