The ministry said the STC militia are fully responsible for the life of the hostage demanding "his immediate and unconditional release and a ceassation of atrocities and incitements against journalists."

The ministry called on the international rights organizations to condemn the STC's "blatant atrocities against journalists and harassment of opinion makers."
