Azerbaijan's State Security Service says it has detained the organizer of the car arson attacks in Masazir, and that the man was caught abroad.

Investigators linked the attacks to one organizer who had since left the country, turning the case into a cross-border operation.

No details on possible charges or court dates appeared in the announcement.
