PROTESTERS ARE STEADFAST IN THEIR DETERMINATION TO KEEP STRUGGLING UNTIL LAST POLITICAL PRISONER FRE

Politics

So far 6,700 signatures of Armenian citizens are collected by the protest action participants outside the Prosecutor General Office in Yerevan. The series of protests is staged by the republic’s organizations. The protesters are demanding to release political prisoners from jail.

The number of signatures could be greater. But many refrain from signing the paper with the demand as they fear of reprisals against them.

Now the protesters demand to release Vagharshak Harutyunyan and Lavretni Kirakosyan from detention and to dismiss Suren Surenyants case.

It is known that other political prisoners were freed recently. The piquet participants are convinced their action played crucial role in that.
