This is the photo of 58-year-old Alvard Tovmasyan, an Armenian woman who was a resident of Karin Tak village, near the Shushi region of Artsakh currently occupied by Azerbaijani forces.

Tovmasyan was a second degree intellectually disabled person tortured “beyond recognition” and found dead outside of her home with her hands, ears, and feet cut off, according to her brother Samvel Tovmasyan who confirmed her identity only by recognizing the clothes she was wearing. She had been missing since November 10, 2020.

This photo was taken on October 29, 2020, the last time her family would see her alive.
