History

On 7 September 1991, during the intensification of the Armenian aggression, the State Defense Committee (SCC) of the Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic was established by order of the Chairman of the Supreme Soviet Heydar Aliyev. Over the course of the 1992, the military units of the former Soviet Armed Forces located in the Nakhichevan Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic of the Azerbaijan SSR were transferred to the SCC. On 22 August 1992 the first border detachment of Azerbaijan was established on the basis of the former 41st Border Detachment, and on 19 September, the 705th Motorized Rifle Brigade was established. On 21 June 1995 the 705th Motorized Rifle Brigade was transformed into 705th Motorized Rifle Division, with a corps being created at its base. Two months prior, the Nakhchivan Battalion of the Internal Troops was established, being upgraded to a regiment in 2002. President Ilham Aliyev ordered in early 2004 that the Nakhchivan Border Detachment was to be transformed into the “Nakhchivan” Border Division.[2][3] On Independence Day in October 2017, the first garrison military parade was held through the capital in honor of the 25th anniversary of the establishment of the first military unit of the National Army, being attended by the President of Nakhchivan Vasif Talibov and Defense Minister Zakir Hasanov.[4][5][6]

Military court

The Military Court of the Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic was established on 27 May 1992 on the basis of the Military Tribunal of the Nakhchivan Garrison. This court, functioning in its current name since 1 June 2000, was until June 2007 the institution with the power to consider cases as a court of first instance.
