SHIRAK MARZ APPEALS TO ARMENIAN DIASPORA
Support A1+!Azatamartiks of Shirak marz have appealed to the Armenian Diaspora. The statement runs in part:
“Armenia’s home political events did have their direct impact on the whole country including Shirak marz. Commanders Ashot Zakarian, Mushegh Saghatelian and azatamartiks Harutiun Urutian and Gevorg Ghazarian are imprisoned on groundless accusations.”
Shirak has always been proud of his heros who have sacrificed everything for Armenia’s future prosperity and protected their Motherland with honour and dignity.
The arrestees have chosen a tough way to restore justice in the country: they have gone on a hunger-strike in prison cells.
Hundreds of thousands of Shirak residents are concerned about the authorities’ indifferent and scornful attitude towards the Artsakh war veterans.
We call on our compatriots living overseas and concerned over our heroes’ fortune to voice a complaint and to exert pressure on Armenia’s authorities in order to administer justice with joint efforts. Otherwise, the future of Armenia will be jeopardized,” the statement runs.
To note, over 5450 people have participated in the collection of signatures in support of the political prisoners of the marz.
