PROTECTORS NEED PROTECTION
Support A1+!“It is not surprising that reporters are absent,” coordinator of the National Civic Initiative Group Hovsep Khurshudyan stated today. The absence of media he conditioned by the event to be held tomorrow in the Liberty Square by Raffi K. Hovannisian’s initiative. However as a matter of fact today’s NCIG discussion had nothing in common with tomorrow’s event.
“Our active struggle is unfavorable for some people, who don’t wish to change anything in our country,” Khurshudyan said before proceeding to the core of the discussion. Today 4 lawyers presented the most vivid examples of juridical violations in various fields. Lawyer Arthur Grigoryan reported on the violations as regards Vahe Grigoryan and other lawyers who did not wish to collaborate with the court and investigation bodies.
The discussion was completed with the words of UN Secretary General Koffi Annan, who said, “…when the rights of human rights defenders are violated, all our rights are jeopardized and each of us is helpless.”
